It’s Jubilee time and it’s not just people who are set to celebrate, as Pets at Home reveals that sales of pet party food are soaring too.
From cakes for canines and even ‘wine’ for dogs, Pets at Home stores have seen a 31% increase in sales of pet party treats in the run up to the platinum party as families look to make sure their pets get involved in the event.
Dr. Karen Heskin, Head of Pets at Pets at Home, said: “The Platinum Jubilee is a once in a lifetime event and I’m sure the Queen’s dogs will be celebrating alongside her! We know that our pets are such important members of the family and it’s only natural that we want to include them in the occasion with lots of tasty treats to enjoy with everyone else.
“However, it’s important to remember that not all human party food is pet-friendly, so it’s best to keep it all out of reach and also make sure pets have a quiet, familiar space to relax if the excitement gets too much.”
The pet care specialist also has a range of Spotify playlists available with reggae, classical and soothing soft rock songs which will help to keep pets calm if they want time away from the busy party atmosphere.
