moonraker Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Please keep your cats and dogs inside tonight or tomorrow night (depends where you live; it's tonight for us) if they are scared by the noise of fireworks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyn_Paul Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Not much use with cats I know, but with dogs it's a good idea - if you're lucky enough to have one as a puppy - to take it to your local fete and feu d'artifice to get it used to sudden loud noises. I took my spaniel to our fete when she was about 8 months old. Frankly she was more excited by the strange smells and all the new people to get to know as we all milled around. When the fireworks started with the usual huge air-bomb, she looked at me as if to say, "is this anything I should be worried about?" and when it was clear that I was not only not concerned, but actually enjoying all this noise and bright coloured flashing lights, she just curled up on the steps by my feet and dozed off with that, 'I never cease to be amazed at the odd things that 2-legs find interesting' look on her face. The only downside is that she now thinks that any loud bang (hunters, aircraft, firworks, thunder) is a signal for a walk!p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
