I already hate what will be going on on new years eve.

people who live outside of germany: are folks using tons and tons of explosives where you live too?

@distelfliege many many more than I like. Where I last lived they were totally legal and it was absolutely awful. I think they're less so here but I guess I'll find out?

@ruth then I'm wishing you as low a noise level as possible.

@distelfliege thank you. I find them exhausting, but my dog is so distressed by them that it severely raises my stress.

@ruth here, it's my cat. I feel so bad for her. I went to the vet to ask if there are tranquilizers available for cats, but she had nothing for me. it's a bit tricky to dose a smallish cat correctly..

@distelfliege @ruth Would a thundershirt work for your pets for fireworks? Or are they too loud/startling for a thundershirt to help?
