There are many ways to help a pet cope with stress. One is to maintain a consistent routine, eating and sleeping at the same times each day. Regular exercise and playtime can help release tension as well as keep the animal from becoming bored or restless. To ease anxious feelings, pets can benefit from calming techniques such as slow and deep diaphragmatic breathing exercises in conjunction with a sense of security like that provided by pressure-weighted or furry items that fit nicely in the palm of your hand. In addition, providing an interactive outlet to safely express their emotions such as puzzle feeders or chewable treats may allow them to burn off nervous energy naturally without damaging furniture or themselves.
