Saturday night there were fireworks somewhere in the neighborhood.
I don't begrudge a little pre-Independence Day whoopdeedo, but does it have to be noisy? Does it have to bother Kate?
Yes, along with thunderstorms, Kate is afraid of the sounds of fireworks.
I found it out the hard way the first summer I had her. We were living in Manhattan and I took her out for a her final walk of the day just as the N.Y. Philharmonic concert in Central Park came to the end of the 1812 Overture — complete with fireworks.
I am not kidding when I say that Kate tried to climb over cars and under cars trying to escape from the hell being unleashed around her. It's a good thing she wasn't unleashed or that would have been the last I would have seen of her. She might still be running.
Here are some tips about fireworks and your pets from the American Humane Association.
