Hey everyone, wish you all a blessed day full of opportunity. I seem to have developed anxiety when it comes to leaving my pets alone. Whenever I have to leave for something as simple as going outside for a few minutes to throw out the trash, I feel the need to check and make sure the doors are closed, windows are closed, and cage is shut to make sure my rabbit and dog won’t get hurt. This doesn’t really come with anxiety but it’s more of a anxious habit. On the other hand, times where I have to leave on vacation or on a trip leave me very very anxious about my pets. For the week before I leave, I constantly worry about my rabbits health, eating properly, and how it’s mental state can be affected by me leaving. It’s kind of silly as I think back on the subject, but even thinking ahead on me having to go to work for the whole day makes my stomach turn with anxiety. Don’t get me started on leaving for a week or two, a situation which leaves me very emotional and even ready at some points. This makes doing anything come with the thoughts of the things that could go wrong. Any fellow dog/rabbit/pet owners have any tips on how to ease this anxiety? TL:DR- looking for tips on how to ease separation anxiety when I leave my rabbit and dog home alone for any length of time.
