#52016-01-01 18:58I have 7 cats and one dog. It is heartbreaking to see how frantic they become. Crackers has no benefits for anyone. It is no only the poor animals that suffer. It creates air and noise pollution and is a danger to children also. |

#62016-01-01 19:01Our animals are scared and want to be in the house. Other animals came out and the owners are now looking for them, and some animals were injured because of this. |

#142016-01-01 22:47Why should animals and birds be maimed and killed because self-centred and inhumane humans derive some perverse pleasure from re-creating a war zone? There is no place for fireworks in a caring and progressive society. |

#202016-01-02 06:16Although heavy thunder and lightning may be loud, the decibels (pitch) are relatively low compared to the high decibels of fireworks. High decibels are experienced by certain animal types 80 times more intense than by a human. Also, animals are generally far more in zync with nature. Because of the time lapse between the moment of lightning and the crack followed, they have time to prepare and take cover. And although they 'understand' nature, they will seek some protection, whereas the sound of fireworks confuses and bewilders them...hence they run blindly. They do not understand the threat or danger or know where it comes from. They are indeed traumatised beyond our understanding. The numerous reports of displaced/lost animals are significant proof of this fact. |

#222016-01-02 06:21I have cats that are terrified of fireworks. They don't understand what is going on. They probably think it's a war zone. |

#252016-01-02 06:24Fireworks are a curse, not only to our furry babies but to humans as well. Too many people get injured from them. Back to our furry babies, they hear these loud bangs and they don't know what its all about. Our babies go missing, get knocked over, the get hurt all because humans are too damn selfish and self centred. #banfireworks!!!! |
