💨 Abstract

Anxiety in pets has risen, often mirroring their owners' stress. Dogs, particularly active breeds, can develop anxiety from lack of socialization, routine changes, and unmet needs. Cats hide anxiety but may show it through behaviors like urinating or excessive grooming. Veterinarians suggest routines, training, and sometimes medication to manage pet anxiety. Supplements and calming products can also help. Owners of anxious pets must understand their needs and adapt their environment and interactions accordingly.
