Dogs vs. cats - who's more afraid of stormy weather?


Almost all the dogs I’ve shared my life with showed some degree of stress when it was stormy outside.

The discomfort ranged from mild concern to overwhelming terror – especially when thunder and lightning were involved!

As for my 4 cats – they could care less!

The weather has been miserable here in Oregon, so I’ve blocked the door to their cat enclosure until things dry out a bit. Dickens just sits at the door and cries to go outside, even if it’s raining buckets or hail is pelting the ground. If the enclosure door was open, he’d be outside taking it all in.

Is this normal for cats?

Purrs,

Chris
