What is going on over there? Stay safe whatever it is!

While Scotland "only" got very strong winds we're expecting hurricane-force gusts over here (74 to 112 mph). There is also a North Sea Coast flood expected, let's hope the preventive measures are enough to keep everyone alive.
 
I just got an 8 year old cat. She seems to be settling into her new home quite well, but she has these random mood swings where she'll hiss and yowl at me. Idk what's going on. I of course did my research by watching the first 2 seasons of My Cat from Hell on Netflix, but I can't figure out why she suddenly freaks out. There is nothing to trigger it. I thought maybe she's sensitive on a part of her body, or doesn't like a certain sound, like the microwave or running water, but that's not it. She's been to the vet & is healthy. I just have no idea what makes her tick. I think she's just nervous & unsure of her new situation (it's been less than a month since we've adopted her). Any cat people out there? Anyone have any experience with an aggressive cat?

I feel like I'm writing a "Dear Abby" letter.
Signed, confused dog lady

I babysit for a family with a bipolar cat on Prozac...so there's that.

It managed to get up to 140mph last night on high ground up here but it was about 80mph where I am when it was at its worst then dropped to about 65-70mph before it died down!
Powers gone again and now its dark :( Candlelight dinner (well, we can't cook food so probably just fruit) wrapped up in a duvet for me!

Gosh! Hope you stay safe!! I've been following it on the news and everyone is getting prepared for the worst really.
Keep us updated!

Maybe try aromatherapy? According to this cat magazine it works: And My Cat

It's bad here too on the NW coast, just had to dodge flying wheelie bins on my drive home from work. The waterfront is now just 'water' and so many people are trapped in businesses due to the tidal surges. I live on the waterfront but luckily up a little hill so I won't get flooded but it was an interesting drive home. I'm bothered about trees smashing my windscreen on my car, my wheelie bins got knocked over and blown about my front yard, it looks like one just missed my living room windows-I've moved them far away now!

Stay safe everyone!

I'm so excited for this! A little nervous to see/hear Carrie as Maria. I love Carrie, just not sure how her voice will be for Maria. Either way I'm excited, sound of music is one of my faves for sure!

Have you seen the behind the scenes thing on NBC.com? It's about 45 minutes. I was unsure of Carrie but then I watched that and I like the idea of it more. And you get to know some of the other cast memebers, it was really interesting!

Ugh. I had to turn it off. Carrie can stick to country and no one should ever try to reenact this movie again. I'm disappointed.
