Hyderabad Pets Seek Refuge from Diwali Fireworks

With Diwali just around the corner, pet owners in Hyderabad are taking proactive measures to ensure their furry companions' well-being during the festival of lights. The city's skies are set to crackle with fireworks, which can be a source of immense stress and anxiety for many pets.

To help their pets cope, Hyderabad residents are turning to boarding centers and professional sitters that offer specialized services. These facilities provide soundproof rooms, calming music, and round-the-clock supervision to help pets feel safe and relaxed during the noisy celebrations. Many pet owners are booking these services well in advance, as the demand for such facilities spikes every festive season.

"My dog gets squirmy, anxious, and even tries to run away whenever he hears loud noises. Not many understand how distressing this time can be for animals," said Aarna Ketika, an IT professional from LB Nagar. For others, Diwali is also a time for travel, and boarding centers have become a valuable resource. "It's expensive to take our two dogs and a cat everywhere we go. These boarding centers are a big help as our pets stay safe and comfortable while we travel without worry," explained Madan M Krant from Narsingi.

Pet boarders say they can accommodate around 25 pets at a time, and their slots are typically filled at least two weeks before Diwali. "The festival means travel, guests, and constant noise, all of which can overwhelm pets. Parents prefer leaving them in a calm, secure environment," said Manjeet Kumar, owner of M&M Waggy Tales in Kondapur.

Experts emphasize that pets have nearly 30% higher sound sensitivity compared to humans, and they cannot block out the noise like we can. "Pets have nearly 30% higher sound sensitivity. Unlike us, they can't block their ears, so you'll often see them shivering or panting out of stress. It's especially hard for new pet parents to handle," added Kumar.
