Thunder shirts, also known as thunder jackets, thunder vests, and thunder coats, are popular with many pet owners. Many veterinarians recommend them to reduce pet anxiety in a calming, drug-free manner. Best of all, it does not require training. When an anxiety trigger is likely to occur or already present, for instance, an approaching thunderstorm, slip the thunder jacket onto your pet.
Like swaddling an infant, pet anxiety shirts apply gentle, constant pressure to calm anxiety, fear, and over-excitement issues in cats and dogs. It is a comforting solution for thunder, fireworks, loud noise/music, separation anxiety, travel, & vet visits. Thunder vests also relieve pets and pet owners who live near airports, highways, busy streets, or construction/demolition zones.
