This morning, while flipping the fried eggs, the siren sounded, and I said, "Oh, fuck!"
The clock said 11:05. A drill?
I went to our "office" to ask my husband, and on my way I saw two things:
The first is normal. Frostie gets scared when noisy planes pass our house, and if we move around furniture or stuff.
But Nefnef?
Nefnef was born in May 2014. When she was a puppy in Tel Aviv, rockets rained over Israel. We were lucky in Haifa. We only had one rocket scare here, but in Tel Aviv it happened several times per day.
And when the siren sounds, you have one minute to reach a shelter.
Naturally, Nefnef came to connect the sound of the siren with rush and fear.
When we got her, she was three months old and scared of nothing.
Except the sounds of the boats in the harbor. They made her crawl under my table, every time.
Today, was the first time the sound of the siren didn't scare her.
And it was a drill, by the way.
