My cat is afraid of lightning and thunder / myLot

It was raining really hard last night with strong wind and thunder & lightning. It was time for my cat to feed. I was looking everywhere and couldn’t find him. I was a bit worried because the rain gets stronger. I asked help from mom because he’s nowhere to be found....after couple of minutes or so, I found him underneath the pile of pillows in my mom’s bed. He’s heart pounding and looks scared. I don’t know what to do because this is the first time I saw cat looking so afraid. So what I did was grabbed and hugged him.

My cats are not afraid but I know many animals are. I had a dog once that hid under the bed when it thundered. Welcome myLot!

I would freak out as well. My dogs were no stranger hiding from thunder.

@unsulliedcatt I am so glad you understood how hard it is for your cat when thunder and lightning happen. My cat I had before Sophie was outside one day and it was blue skies and then all of a sudden the lightning started so I ran out to get her. I put her inside me and talked to her the whole way inside. It was so hard for her.
