Tonight is Guy Fawkes night, which means big fireworks in town, and little firecrackers in the neighbours gardens. Our vets emailed us advice, like stay inside, hide under the bed if you need to, and pee early in the evening. Of course as soon as the big display started in town, which sent big thunderbooms around town, well that's when I wanted to go outside. Once it finished I came in for a sleep. No thunderbooms are goin to keep me out of my garden.
New regulations have meant that shops can only sell fireworks 3 days before the 5th of November, and the shops seem to have reduced the amounts they sell by 80% compared to 10 years ago. So there were not too many in our neighbourhood.
Keep safe everybuddy.

We hope the fireworks stop for you soon. They don't bother us too much, but then we don't like going out in the cold and dark!
ReplyDeletePoppy,
ReplyDeleteYou are so brave to be out when the booming was going on! Rest well!
Purrs,
Lucy
Poppy Q, we love that you went out into your garden regardless of the fireworks! You are a brave girl and would have made Guy Fawkes proud!

ReplyDeleteFireworks doesn't sound very peaceful to me!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you've assumed the perfect position though. Stay tight in your ball and all will be fine.
Peace to you, Poppy Q.

We can hear the fireworks. Even though they are not very close, they are still loud. We can't see them from the garden, but if we look out the window, we can see them up in the sky out over the river.
ReplyDeleteWow Poppy you are super brave to want to go outside during the thunderbooms. Most cats would be hidden as best as they could!
ReplyDeleteThat's one of my favourite sleeping positions!
ReplyDeleteI'm not much fur fireworks - the smells get me all anxious - I don't mind the booms too much -
Glad woo were a brave girrrrrl!

Yes, selling less has helped us here, too. Our 4th of July wasn't so noisy this year. I didn't have to hide under the bed once.
ReplyDeleteAnd I an see that my Stinky Sophie is going to look just like you when she grows up.
Hugs and Peace
We're not sure whether you're brave or crazy going on with all those thunderbooms going off. Glad you're inside safe.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a peaceful DAy with the boomies!
ReplyDeleteI know NZ is a formerly British colony, but you do Guy Fawkes too?
ReplyDeleteWe're glad that the thunderbooms didn't scare you and keep you out of your garden!
ReplyDeleteCharlemagne and Tamar

ReplyDeleteNo-one is allowed to sell fireworks in Australia now. Which is good.
ReplyDeletePoppy Q you are a very brave kitty, Hendrix and Joplin always hide under the bed when there are fireworks in our neighborhood!
ReplyDeleteWhat a brave girl you are, sweet Poppy. Special treats for you, love.
ReplyDeleteDid your mum make toffee apples? Or is that too old fashioned.
