GHENT, WV (WVNS) — With fireworks going off across southern West Virginia day and night, you may be wondering how you can keep your pet calm and happy when the loud bangs and booms begin.

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said that keeping dogs and cats in an interior room with no windows and gentle music can help.

They also suggest anxiety vests or snug pet shirts for keeping your furry friend relaxed.

In some cases, your vet might recommend anti-anxiety medication. Make sure that you follow the instructions on the medicine exactly to ensure the safety and well-being of your beloved pet.

Check in with your pets often as the fireworks go on and reassure them that everything will be just fine.
