Have you seen your cat run and hide under a bed or in another secluded place, like a closet, basement, or dark, unused room when it’s thundering and lightning outside? Cats often experience fear and anxiety from thunderstorms or fireworks because both present unexpected lights and sounds that they can’t understand. Because they are predators by nature, they do their best to avoid showing signs of weakness or fear, and hiding is the best indication of their discomfort with a situation. It’s important to think in advance of ways to relax your cat during thunderstorms, so be sure to talk to us right away if you have an anxious cat.
