Thunderstorm
A steady bed under the rumbles. Curtains closed, volume a little fuller than usual, you stay calm too.

Hold them
through it.
When the sky cracks, the fireworks start, or the house suddenly feels too quiet — start a calm-down nest. Soft music wraps the room while the storm passes.
What's happening
Hold the nest for
45:00
until the nest fades
A soft storm bed of 21 tracks from Eye of the Storm, Ice Palace and Night Train.
Four kinds of hard moment.
Each nest leans on different albums so the sound matches the night, not a one-size playlist.
Fireworks
Warm, even music that doesn't jump. Start before the first bang if you can.
Happy Place · Sands of Time · Oasis · 19 tracks
Home alone
Start it ten minutes before you leave, and play it some evenings when you're home too.
House in the Woods · Cat Nap · Just Relax · 12 tracks
Settling down
After a scare, or at bedtime. The nest fades out over a minute instead of cutting dead.
Sleep Tight · Mellow Skies · Tranquil Trails · 15 tracks
Soft tips,
not prescriptions.
Music can make a hard moment a little softer for many dogs. It isn't a treatment, and every dog is different — watch yours.
- Quieter than you think. Their hearing is sharper than ours. Barely audible to you is often plenty.
- Start before the scare. A nest already playing is steadier than music that kicks in at the first bang.
- Not only when you leave. Otherwise the music becomes the cue that you're going.
- Watch the body. Lying down and sighing is good. Pacing or panting means try something else, or silence.
Made by a cat.
For your dog.
