"If anyone cares ..." ~
That's not a very up-beat way to open a post ... A LOT of us "care"!
8 Years old is a tough age to be tossed into a shelter and told to Find a New Home.
Over the years, most of my Dawgs have been "strays" - with no know previous homes.
They all seem to "develop" a fear of Thunder Storms ...
I've asked each of them: Just WHAT didi you do (before you got here)
when it *THUNDERED* and you were OutSide??
Where did you *hide* and who gave you comfort back then?"
Never seem to get an answer to that question!
I try not to make the situation worse ... *I* "try" to stay calm & relaxed;
and mostly ignore the FurKids other than a friendly *pat* if they wander by,
They seem to develop their own method of coping ...
* Cinder & Smoke alternate between hiding under the BigBed and the Puter Desk
* Bowser wakes up with a look of *PANIC*, turns around, and goes back to sleep
*da Kat ALWAYS gets up, dashes to the opposite end of the house;
then curls up and goes back to sleep - with his eyes *popping open* with
each major clap of thunder.
* Then if *I* go inna baffroom ...
ALL FOUR make a mad dash to barge in and "help" me!
Wishing GOOD Luck to Skylee!
