W/ the best cats
Last Thursday, Metro Manila was hit by a the worst typhoon in eleven years. I had no electricity for 48 hours, no phone/no internet for 24 hours and I heard a lot of other areas in the city had no water either. My garden was wrecked and my back is in bad shape from the cleaning up.
Anyway, my kitties and the doggie, were there during the dark hours. They entertained me when there was nothing to do, calmed me as the winds and rain lashed out incessantly, alerted me to strange noises, and were less demanding for attention. They actually sensed I was quite stressed. Aren't animals just the greatest gift to people?

Did you know it was coming ? Did they sense it coming ?

Just as well all your fur pals were indoors. Must have been real scary, glad you are all ok.

Yayi, I am so happy that you have come through the ordeal safely
I will have to pay more attention to the weather reports in your area of the world - now when I hear "typhoon" I will pay attention.
Your precious pets - they indeed knew that their meowmmy was distressed. I am so glad that you had them there for comfort during those dark hours. When I go outside at night, I prefer to have my at least one of the cats with me, to monitor their responses, since they can see in the dark, and have such excellent hearing.
