The weather this weekend is forecast to be anything but boring. Rain today, turning to fierce thunderstorms tonight, morphing into snow tomorrow. Very interesting.
The storms mean that Nemo will have a tough time of it. He doesn’t like thunder and lightning, not even a little bit. He wasn’t always this way. His being nervous about loud noises started two years ago. We had a particularly noisy storm one summer, plus fireworks on the Fourth of July, plus our ball field shooting off fireworks after a baseball game. All of it was just too much.
I’d heard thunder shirts help, so I bought one. No. It didn’t make a bit of difference. Neither did a calming spray, sprayed on his bed, nor did the soothing tablets from the veterinarian. However, I may try the tranquilizers again, from his favorite doctor. Hopefully, they’ll help take the edge off.
Snow is more to Nemo’s liking. It’s soft and pretty and doesn’t make any sound at all. It’s also peaceful. After the banging and rattling of thunder, that’ll be like a soothing balm. So, hooray for wintry weather!
