Default Cats and fireworks

On 2006-01-01, CatNipped penned:

Aside from the occasional ear flick, my four don't seem to even
notice the constant barrage of bangs outside. Gypsy, on the other
hand is pacing nervously (Erin says she does the same during
thunderstorms).


Yup. Oscar never even seems to notice fireworks, even very loud ones
or the screechers that I hate.

My dog Puma (RB), on the other hand, was absolutely terrified of them
and would shake terribly as he tried so hard to rub up against you
that it felt he was trying to get inside your skin. Poor dog. He had
the same reaction to thunderstorms, and if caught outside during one
without anyone home would outrun the storm to escape.
