Halloween is just around the corner—a time for costumes, candy, and festive fun. But while it’s exciting for us, it can be a stressful or even risky time for cats. From extra visitors at the door to tempting treats left around the house, there are plenty of things to watch out for. Here are a few ways you can make sure your feline friend enjoys a safe and comfortable Halloween.
Why Halloween Can Be Stressful for Cats 🐱
Cats thrive on routine and calm environments. The constant doorbell rings, noisy trick-or-treaters, and unusual activity in the house can leave them anxious or hiding.
Hazards to Watch Out For 🎃
Halloween décor and treats may look festive, but many can be dangerous for pets. Candy, especially chocolate, is toxic to cats, and certain decorations like candles or string lights can cause accidents if curious paws get too close.
Creating a Safe Space at Home 🏡
If you’re expecting trick-or-treaters, consider giving your cat a quiet room away from the front door. Add their favorite bed, toys, food, and water to help them feel secure.
