| Ya got me there.. I hate fireworks. It traumatizes & scares my | |
| pets and feels like animal cruelty. It is animal abuse as it | |
| really shakes up the beautiful creatures in our backyards that | |
| are often ignored and unseen. Fireworks disrupts and cause an | |
| imbalance as animals often seek refuge outside their normal | |
| already perfect homes invading one another habitat/home | |
| territories creating imbalance for everyone's lifestyle in that | |
| vicinity. | |
| During fireworks near my street, I worry about my roof catching | |
| fire. I just feel like I'm being shot at. The smell of sulfur | |
| fills the air There's better ways of celebrating than using | |
| gunpowder.. people need to learn to play a musical instrument or | |
| something instead. ;) | |
| By Zeus or by Jove, we already got free fireworks from nature | |
| ... just watch a thunder and lighting storm .. that's enough | |
| commotion and excitement for this mortal. | |
| My dog deserves a good belly rub not an explosive scare. | |
| The cats are happy on the back porch leave them be don't mess | |
| with them or me. | |
| I'm not a big fan of gunpowder in any shape or form especially | |
| when it goes off near my sacred body. | |
| I hate fireworks and so do our animals, | |
| You ain't no animal lover if you like fireworks and | |
| pyrotechnics, | |
| Who wants to be part of something that generally and | |
| specifically hurts animals? Not me, | |
| The Masked Man | |
| P.S. After writing this I googled "do firework events hurt | |
| animals" just to see if there's anything to back up my theories | |
| and evidently I am right about how harmful fireworks are for | |
| animals. | |
| There are indeed countless articles on the impact fireworks has | |
| on these poor innocent beautiful creatures: | |
| "Yes, firework events have many negative and potentially fatal | |
| impacts on animals, including pets, livestock, and wildlife | |
| . Animals are more sensitive to loud noises, bright flashes, and | |
| strange smells than humans, which can lead to extreme stress, | |
| injury, and death... | |
