Truffles gets spooked by bangs and fizzes, so I try to be home as much as possible between Halloween and New Year, or leave a CD playing to make the outdoor noises less obvious. Yesterday we were snuggled reading a book when the bangs began, and I remembered my neighbours are away with their cats outdoors, so I invited the one I could find in - he was having none of it! Either he’s scared of Truffles or he likes fireworks! (Robbie would sit on the windowsill watching them)
