Freaked out felines

Last night was strong gusting winds. Same this morning with added horizontal
rain. So last night was noisy with the sound of the wind against the
windows. Cue freaked out felines. My three really don't like the noise and
are wide-eyed, unsettled, tail-lashing felines wandering from room to room
in a most upset fashion. Poor beasties!

Boy, I know that feeling! We had our heavy winds a few days ago, for a
couple of days, and I never saw so many cats on the bed, wide-eyed,
staring first at the window, and then at me ("Mommy! I'm skeered! Make
it stop!"

Poor beasties, indeed.

When we have a storm like that,I open the bedroom closet door so TuTu can
go in and hide until it is quiet again. If she gets frightened while I
am out, I usually find her under the covers on my bed. Scared cat!

Christina Websell...

It's like that in Leicestershire too, started Saturday night and kept me
awake until 4 a.m Sunday, howling winds and lashing rain. My greenhouse is
in poor shape now :-(
My cats seem to be oblivious to scary weather, and fireworks too.
We seem to having some of the same today, purrs that your cats will settle
like mine. KFC is unconscious in front of the fire and Boyfie is
meatloafing on the kitchen rug pointing his face towards the door,
considering whether or not to go out on rat patrol.
I know he's not afraid of bad weather. I remember that he accompanied me to
check the chicken hut roofs a while ago during a really bad storm in the
night.
He's just decided the rats can wait until tomorrow and got on to the settee.
Wise choice, it's a bit wild out there!

Other Brits, how's your weather? Breezy?

Rita loves thunderstorms, especially with lightning. She sits in the
window, wide-eyed and fascinated, watching the storm outside. I've
never seen a cat do that before. On the other hand, she's also not
afraid of the sucky monster.
