Lightning Storm

A big storm was moving in. Myst was looking out of the kitchen window as the sky turned from morning light to dark all in a few minutes. The rain and wind had not hit yet. A few bolts of lightning flashed out of the sky.

You should have seen Myst's eyes! They seemed bigger and wider than mine! He watched the lightning in fascination, perhaps because he loves to chase the laser light and flashlight beams and maybe he thought this would be fun.

Then, BOOM!!! Thunder came very loud. Rain poured down. Myst said, "Forget this!" and ran for his deep dark hiding spot under the sofa. I just sat there watching the whole thing and Dandelion slept. I expect we will not see Myst for most of today. Myst can be pretty amusing sometimes.

Oh, thunderstorms are the worst! But big eyes make beautiful kitties like you look even more beautiful.

I like to hide when I hear loud noises like thunder. Under the bed is usually safe!

Awww, that face! I'd have hid out too, Myst!

My Momma told my daddy about this blog posting and he was sorry for you too.

Hi Myst,
You poor thing! We don't like thunderstorms, either. We usually go hide under Mommy's bed.

We're glad you and your family are safe and sound.
