Anna that was a scary story but I think the main thing it pointed out to me at least is just how at home Huney feels with you in such a short time and that she has certainly learned her name in order to be able to come when you called. (Bella sometimes doesn't do as well after over a year ). She knows she has found "the good life" and I am sure was just as upset about being lost as you were.

Yes, fireworks can really scare the furkids. My toy poodle, Pumpkin, (Rainbow Bridge) would shake and occasionally throw up if they were being set off too close to our house. A former neighbor used to shoot a gun at midnight on New Year's Eve/Day and that bothered him too (and us as well). Fortunately for us this screwball moved. The cats, however, could sleep through anything. They are totally unphased by noise.
