Holiday Safety: Keeping Your Cats Safe and Happy Through the Holiday Season
The holidays are upon us, and while we're busy celebrating, our cats may have a very different opinion about all the excitement! In this special holiday edition of 19 Cats & Counting, Rita Reimers, The Cat Analyst, takes us through the holiday season, from Halloween and Thanksgiving to Bodhi Day, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.
From unfamiliar visitors and disrupted routines to tempting decorations, festive foods, and noisy celebrations, each holiday brings its own challenges for our feline family members. Rita shares practical tips for keeping cats safe, comfortable, and happy throughout the festivities, including how to recognize signs of holiday stress, prevent common mishaps, and help your cats feel secure when their familiar world gets turned upside down.
Whether your cat loves being part of the celebration or would rather hide until the guests leave, this episode will help you make the holidays enjoyable for everyone, including the four-legged members of your family!
Because the best holiday gift we can give our cats is a safe, happy home.
