How can I tell if my pet is depressed

Sure! Here are four different ways to answer that question:

"You might notice your pet being less active than usual, like not wanting to play or go for walks. If they’re sleeping more and seem a bit withdrawn, that could be a sign they’re feeling down."

"Look for changes in their behavior. If your pet is suddenly not interested in their favorite toys or food, or if they’re hiding away more than normal, it might be a sign of depression."

"If your pet is acting differently, like being more clingy or, on the flip side, wanting to be alone all the time, that could indicate they’re not feeling too great emotionally."
