songkran in sattahip with a munchkin who hates bangs

Songkran this year was the loudest I have ever heard in Sattahip. Two days of kids with water guns, then at night somebody on the beach road started with fireworks and never stopped. Espresso went under the bed on the first night and she is still not out properly. I am from Spain and I grew up with fireworks at every fiesta, so I thought I would not care. I was wrong. Espresso is 8 and a half and she has never been like this before. Maybe she heard something last year that frightened her, I do not know. What I have done so far: closed the windows, put the fan on high so she cannot hear outside, and moved her litter box into the bedroom instead of the balcony. The small things help a bit. She eats from my hand at least, which is better than nothing. The condo juristic office sent a notice saying no fireworks on the premises. Nice idea. Nobody reads notices here, including me. Our neighbour on the 12th floor, a Thai man, told me to give her some herbal drink he uses for his dog. I politely said maybe, then I went to search for it at 2am. I will ask our vet in Sattahip next week. He is good and honest and never tries to sell me extras. Heat is also a problem. The rest of the day it is 36 degrees and she sits on the cold tiles near the aircon all afternoon. I am not complaining about the cat, she has good taste. Tonight the parties start again. I bought earplugs for both of us, as a joke. She does not like the earplugs, obviously.
