Moving With Pets
Moving can be hard on everyone involved. Adults, kids and yes...even your pets! while your pet may not understand exactly what is going on they can sense the stress (good or bad) that the whole family is experiencing. Add to that the fact that animals are creatures of habit and do not like the changes to their usual routine, and you can understand why they become so confused. They also become quite anxious when all of a sudden, they see their human family busily throwing everything around them into boxes. Naturally, we always want to keep our pets happy and healthy because we love them....but we also want to lessen the chances of their "acting out". Animals just like people, can behave rather badly when under stress, and so we need to do all we can to help them feel secure throughout the moving process.
What we really need to know is: when faced with an upcoming move, how do we reduce the amount of stress that our pets are going to experience, and what can we do about the unavoidable disruption to their daily routine? We posed this very question to industry experts, took their invaluable input, and created the following list of tips.
