    Not at all! I am always surprised about this. When there is a thunderstorm I wonder if they will be all right, and...they just don't care!

    Ming is not overly fond of them, but I wouldn't say he was terrified, either. Mac likes to sit in the window and watch the lightening. There's not much that boy is scared of, except the vacuum cleaner.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    Rascal isn't afraid of anything, Thunderstorms included. Kallie can't hear storms so she is pretty content most of the time.

    We don't even have rain....let alone thunderstorms! But I don't remember either of them being bothered by storms.

    They really don't bother Groucho. Sometimes he'll curl up in his bed and go to sleep, other times he gets very snuggly.

    Some of my guys get skittish when there is a big clap of thunder. You know the ones that sound like it's right over your house. Other than that, they are fine. In fact we are suppose to have a thunder storm rolling in sometime during the night. I just pray that it isn't as bad as what Toronto got today. Boy what a doozy that one was.

    We rarely have thunder here. I do remember one time though when my Storm jumped when he heard thunder. I found it funny that Storm was afraid of a storm.

    That's Pinot - unless it sounds like it's going to hit the house, she's fine.
