Kennels and cattery transformed to help soothe pets
 
Battersea Dogs and Cats Home is set to transform its cattery and kennels this Bonfire Night, in a bid to calm its frightened residents.

With fireworks going off for hours on end, Bonfire Night is potentially one of the scariest nights of the year for many pets.

The charity will create a sensory environment with lights and music. Special radios that play clinically tested calming music have been purchased for the kennels, to complement soothing night lights.

All kennel and cattery windows will also be covered to block out the flashing lights from fireworks.

Cats will have cosy pens, warm beds and curtains to hide away. Special scents will also be sprayed in their areas to keep them relaxed.

A rise in the number of lost dogs and cats is often seen around the 5 November. Battersea is advising owners to get their pets microchipped and to follow its lead in creating a safe haven for pets during the celebrations.
