Advice for keeping safe

ManxSPCA has issued guidance for keeping pets calm during firework displays

The Fire and Rescue Service has issued advice to members of the public on how to keep safe, urging people only to buy fireworks from a reputable retailer, and to store them in a cool, dry, locked box out of reach of children.

Meanwhile, charity ManxSPCA has issued advice to pet owners to reduce the stress of animals during fireworks.

Guidance includes preparing a quiet and comfortable area in the home for pets to retreat, keeping them distracted and indoors during displays and monitoring them.

The charity has also urged members of the public planning to host their own display to inform people in their area.

"Fireworks can be a spectacular sight, but for many pets, they can be a source of anxiety and stress," the charity added.
