The noisy celebration is unexpected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">\u201cDogs and cats hear at higher decibels than we do and higher frequencies, so if it\u2019s loud for you, it\u2019s 20 times louder for them, so it\u2019s terrifying,\u201d Crane said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Pet owners can prevent the mishap and be prepared if it happens. Here are some tips: <\/p>\n<p>Make sure your pets have their collars with their tagsMake sure the pets\u2019 microchips are up to dateKeep current photos of the pet\u2019s face, body, and collar Swaddle them up like a baby or use a really tight T-shirt to help them feel very comfortable when they\u2019re scared.Use calming aids like doggy or kitty Xanax prescribed by your veterinarianMake a safe and secure space inside the home, so they can\u2019t escape. If you leave your pets, place them in a quiet room without windowsUse a small speaker to play calming music<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-article-body__copyright\">Copyright 2025 by WPLG Local10.com &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Jacey Birch\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/https:\/\/author-service-images-sandbox-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub\/wplginc\/4ae80002-c4f7-4e20-8f.jpeg\"  width=\"100\" height=\"100\"\/>Jacey Birch<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-author-bio__author-description\">Jacey Birch is Local 10&#8217;s Animal Advocate reporter and investigator for animal stories.
