How Hemp Oil for Pets Can Help Combat Anxiety this Bonfire Season
Why do dogs and cats react to fireworks?
Fireworks affect dogs and cats in a multitude of ways. The fear of fireworks in dogs and cats comes from their better hearing capabilities. This fear can often turn into anxiety especially around any festive seasons where fireworks are more likely to be set off. Because of how loud and unpredictable fireworks are to dogs and cats they often associate them with danger. In turn it can cause your dog or cat to display anxiety symptoms that can include barking, whining, pacing, inability to settle down, destructive behaviours, hesitation to go outside and repetitive behaviours like licking and circling, especially in cats.
Endocannabinoid systems in dogs and cats
Just like humans, dogs and cats have an endocannabinoid system throughout their body. It works in the exact same way as humans. If there is an imbalance in just one of those receptors that can cause a variety of problems such as anxiety, sleep problems, sensitivity to pain and aggression. This is why it is crucial to keep your dog or cat's endocannabinoid system well balanced. When their bodies aren't in balance this is where hemp for dogs and hemp for cats comes into play.
Will hemp oil get my dog/cat high?
The question everyone is asking, will my dog or cat get high on hemp oil? The simple answer is no, a good quality hemp oil made for dogs and cats will include none or next to none THC. THC is the compound part that creates the “high” effects. By getting a hemp oil for dogs or cats that includes no THC it means the product won't have any psychoactive effects on your furry friend.
How will hemp oil help my dog/cat this bonfire night?
Although there aren't many extensive studies on hemp oil for pets, those that have been done have proven that hemp oil does affect dogs and cats in positive ways. As discussed earlier the endocannabinoid system helps regulate mood and stress. This is done by the hemp oil connecting to the receptors in your pet's body which balances it out creating a state of calm. Hemp oil often contains Vitamin E and omega fatty acids which have excellent anti-inflammatory properties helping reduce pain and makes your pet feel much more comfortable. Hemp oil for pets also contains omega 3s and magnesium which help calm your pets in stressful situations.
