What's the bottom line on your pets and the solar eclipse? Don't worry.
"Thankfully, pet parents won't have to worry about their pets staring directly at the sun and hurting their eyes because, inherently, cats and dogs don't do this."
As the good folks at NASA note,
“It’s no different than any other day,” said Angela Speck, co-chair of the National Solar Eclipse Task Force, in an Aug. 21 NASA media briefing. “On a normal day your pets don’t try to look at the sun and therefore don’t damage their eyes, so on this day they’re not going to do it either.”
The sun doesn’t become more dangerous on the day of the eclipse. Warnings are only being issued because people are more likely to want to look at the sun.
