ThunderShirt uses gentle hugging to calm your dog or cat. With its patented design, ThunderShirt’s gentle, constant pressure has a dramatic calming effect for most dogs and cats if they are anxious, fearful or overexcited.
The ThunderShirt works by providing soothing compression to help calm down anxious pets. The principle is similar to a hug or a weighted blanket, as gentle pressure seems to quell the fight or flight response triggered by anxiety or fear. The light compression provided by the Thundershirt can help pets during storms, during fireworks, in unfamiliar situations, or just anytime stress or fear are a concern.
Many vets do recommend the ThunderShirt for cats and dogs. The Thundershirt is a drug-free, easy intervention that can help calm cats and dogs during times of stress. Of course, every pet is different, so success rates do vary, but the Thundershirt can be a helpful aid for stressed out pets. Ask your vet whether the Thundershirt might be a good option for your anxious pet.
To find the ThunderShirt size that is right for your pet, you will need to know your pet's weight and chest circumference. Choose the size that most closely matches your pet's measurement and weight, sizing up if your pet is in between sizes. Chewy includes a helpful size guide on every ThunderShirt listing as well as instructions on how to properly measure your pet.
