From setting up a cosy spot for your pets to making them their favourite treats, here are tips to have a pet-friendly Diwali. (All pics: Pexels)

According to Devanshi Shah, founder and CEO, Petkonnect, not all human food is pet-friendly. Keep those goodies out of their paws and opt for delicious, pet-approved treats to celebrate together.

Loud music and fireworks can be a bit too much for your fur babies. Set up a cosy and quiet spot for them to chill with their favourite toys, a comfy bed.

Pets and ornaments don't always see eye to eye. Choose decorations that won't break easily or become chew toys.

If you're hosting a Diwali bash, make sure your guests know the pet rules. Keep an eye on doors and gates to prevent any sneaky escapes.
