Easing Separation Anxiety in Pets

When it comes to separation anxiety, our pets can experience different forms of distress when alone. Today, we will give you a few ways that you can soothe their anxiety using Bogarel pet furniture.

Understanding separation anxiety

Before we delve into how Bogarel pet furniture can help ease separation anxiety in your pets, let's first understand what separation anxiety is and its common signs.


Separation anxiety is a behavioural condition in pets, primarily seen in dogs but also occasionally in cats. It arises from the fear of being separated from their owners. Common signs of separation anxiety include:

• Excessive Vocalisation: Pets may bark, meow, whine, or howl excessively when left alone.
• Destructive Behaviour: Pets may chew furniture, scratch doors, or engage in other destructive activities.
• House Soiling: Some pets may urinate or defecate indoors when their owners are absent.
• Pacing and Restlessness: Restlessness is a telltale sign of anxiety in pets, with constant pacing or the inability to settle down.
• Excessive Grooming: Cats may over-groom as a response to anxiety.

Stellar natural cat tree, a haven of comfort

Many pets feel more secure when they have a cosy hideaway to which they can retreat. The Stellar natural cat tree in wicker is a cosy hideaway for cats. This pet furniture piece offers a secure and comfortable spot for your feline friend to relax and observe their surroundings. Its elevated sphere serves as an ideal vantage point for your cat to feel in control, reducing anxiety.

Constellation wooden cat tree to keep your cat entertained

Boredom can worsen separation anxiety. Our furniture incorporates elements like scratching posts, multiple platforms, and suspended toys to keep your pets mentally and physically engaged.
Our contemporary cat trees, like Constellation, encourage your furry friends to play and explore while you are gone. This helps to reduce anxiety-induced destructive behaviours and keep them entertained in your absence.

Durable and pet-safe furniture

Our pet furniture is built to last and is constructed with safe and non-toxic materials, ensuring the well-being of your pets even when you're not there to supervise.
All of our creations are PETA-approved and the fabric used in our Gaïa collection is GRS-certified.

Olympia, our transportable pet rug

When you have the opportunity to take your dog to pet-friendly places, Olympia can make the experience simple and enjoyable. The Olympia transportable dog mat has been specially designed to make it easier for your pet to get around.
This mat can fulfil several roles. At home, it can be used as a comfortable bed for your dog, providing a familiar space where he feels safe and secure. When you're ready to leave, simply fold it up and put it in the car. So your dog can enjoy the same comfort and familiarity, even on the move.

Design cat and dog beds, a cosy nest to relax

Pets often seek out cosy, soft spots, and having a designated pet bed can provide them with a sense of security. When they associate the bed with relaxation and comfort, it can help reduce anxiety. Our Gaïa collection offers 3 different types of beds in different sizes to fit your pet.

As stated previously, pets find comfort in familiar smells. When they have their bed infused with your scent, it can help create a calming environment and reduce separation anxiety. Placing an article of your clothing or a blanket with your scent in their bed can also achieve a similar effect.
