Oooh! Aaah!
Mr. Sunshine isn’t really watching fireworks, he’s watching a moth inside the swag lamp, but it’s cute to think so.
Actually all five black cats disappeared as the neighbors lit firecrackers now and then, and later Carnegie’s fireworks lit up the sky a distance away (on July 3). Kelly hid in the entertainment center, but Cookie, who is pretty deaf, stayed on her cabinet in the kitchen.
I have a bi-fold door to the basement, and a small rectangle cut out of one lower corner for them to access the basement. I walked into the kitchen after the fireworks were over and suddenly basement cats where flowing out of the hole in the door—all five of them came up one after another with big round eyes, ready to run back down at the slightest “bang”. I gave everyone treats and catnip.

Steeler and I had Mother Natures fireworks most of the day and then the fireworks last night. She just seemed to take in all in stride. No more scary things.
Mr. Sunshine looks divine in this pic.
Actually, I think he’s looking for divine inspiration.
Allegra had a rough time with the fireworks neighbors were shooting off last night. Ruby, on the other hand, was running from window to window, trying to see where the action was. It’s been thankfully quiet so far tonight.
Ruby is a real free spirit, isn’t she?!
One of my neighbors has something that sounds like a cannon, startles even me! Tonight it’s been storming off and on, which is much less startling than firecrackers and fireworks.
