    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!
