    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.

    We have thunderstorms here once in a while but Sophie doesn't care at all, sometimes she doesn't even wake up!

    Some of my cats are afraid & some of them are not.. The ones that are afraid will go under the bed & or into my walk-in closets in my bedroom..

    We had another thunderstorm today, but I wasn't at home when it came down. However, my mother told me on the phone this evening that Peggy has been so scared that she was hiding under the couch!

    I found it funny that Storm was afraid of a storm.
    Yup, that is funny! Just as if my Luna would fear the moon! LOL

    Peaches is afraid of thunderstorms. But after what she has been through, I don't blame her.
    What happened to her?

    I have to amend my earlier response...we had a whopper of a t-storm last night, and not only is she not BOTHERED by them, Pinot was at the sliding glass door watching the show! Things were blowing around & lightning was lighting up the deck, she was fascinated!
