Our poor boy was terrified of the fireworks over halloween. We put his blanket over him and played some calming music on a bluetooth speaker and it helped him relax. (reddthat.com)

    Wow, I had honestly never heard of that holiday before!
    And do I understand the Wikipedia article correctly that this is also the root of "Thanksgiving"?
    That would actually be quite funny! 😆

    BTW, we also light huge bonfires here in Germany around that time of year (11.11), but without any fireworks. It's to celebrate St. Martin's Day.
