    Sorry, Ed, but I stand by my characterization of people who set off illegal fireworks. They’re idiots. The harm they cause is real, as is the potential for even greater harm.

    I work full-time in Burien during the week, but, am looking to add some additional hours on the weekends on a consistent basis.

    I am a lifelong west Seattle resident, a mom to 2 teen boys, and offer an extensive background in the admin/healthcare areas.

    I am open to pretty much anything, my only restriction would be no heavy lifting (medical reason). I own my own car and am very reliable. I can provide a resume within reason for legitimate opportunities.

    I am also fully bilingual in Spanish/English, both spoken and written.

    Thank you in advance!

    @KBear I didn’t set any off this year but I did enjoy watching what other people did. There is no need to call people who enjoy the fireworks or utilize them idiots.

    Often times we live in bubbles that are sounding boards and I only posted because I’ve found a solution for my dog and also to offer the counter point that many people like me enjoy them when they are used and limited to specific days.

    Mike, I’m really sorry to hear about your Nextdoor. I am the lead in mine. I started the damned thing. If someone gets out of line, their posts are removed. We won’t tolerate it here. At least I try to not tolerate. I don’t actively monitor, because that’s not my job. But I do get notices.. I mainly use ND to post things I’m giving away, or selling. It keeps it in the immediate hood. But no one needs to be uncivil ever. Sorry yours devolves into that :(
    I spent NYE at my daughter’s near Bitter lake. Spent the night…it was quiet except for about 10 minutes after midnight. It’s seriously near Evergreen Washelli, so definitely a quiet neighborhood most of the time. As is Admiral District, where I’m at. I wonder why south of here is so much noisier…proximity to White Center where they are sold in June and July? If WC ever becomes part of Seattle, will that help it to stop, I wonder.

    I personally enjoy the fireworks and believe that they should be legal on the 4th & New Years. The law as it is now is just a feel good piece as it’s not enforced because the vast majority of us are ok with fireworks. I did read through the complaints listed and my mind has not changed.

    Anyway, my reason for posting: In case this helps anyone this is what we use with our dog and it has worked out well to manage anxiety during fireworks:

    anonyme: As a new-ish Building owner in White Center I can concur with you that something needs to be done — for the last 3 years we have had to hire private security and literally camp out in our parking lot with water and hoses to keep our building from burning down — there was a fire started in our shrubs ( 2 different years) by some people letting off fireworks in the parking lot next door that with a little gust of wind could have burned the whole block down. luckily we were on-site and called it in immediately.

    It has become my least favorite day of year where I live in fear b/c it’s White Center, can never go out of town or just enjoy the day with my family. Why they are legal ANYWHERE is just beyond me and agree with a Statewide ban. I have racked my brain as to how to make a change but you are right, since law enforcement clearly publicizes they aren’t going to enforce anything I always come back to then why bother.

    Animals suffer from PTSD, and many pets in West Seattle (as well as their owners) have been so traumatized over the extreme, over-the-top use of fireworks here that they react at the sound of the first pop. This year, my cat went into a kind of shock/terror, where he became an immobilized blob trying to sink into the floor, licking and drooling. When I picked him up his limbs remained rigid, just like the animals you see rescued from situations of severe abuse. No amount of tranquilizers help, NOR SHOULD ANYONE HAVE TO RESORT TO DRUGGING THEIR PETS DUE TO THE LAWLESS AND RECKLESS BEHAVIOR OF OTHERS.

    The police have the gall to actually announce on TV that they will not enforce fireworks violations, and the only admonition goes out to those who might dare to call 911 to report abuse. There has always been a kind of backward approach to criminal behavior in Seattle. Commit a crime or exhibit outrageous behavior, and you get a slap on the wrist at best, with most people turning away in a passive aggressive manner. Complain about, or confront such behavior and you.will.be.punished. It seems to be a form of virtue branding, with many Seattleites congratulating themselves on their “tolerance” – even when said “tolerance” creates a situation that is dangerously intolerable, or, to put it bluntly – just plain stupid.

    Offhand, I’m thinking of a few things we can do to stop this. First, we have a new mayor and eventually a new police chief. Pressure must be brought to bear on these officials (include Herbold) to begin to enforce the laws of this city. Second, work on the restriction of fireworks sales, in White Center and elsewhere. I personally think the ban should be statewide. A valid case can and should be made that explosives should not be sold recreationally. Quite frankly, most fireworks use seems to have devolved to this category. Third, citizen action. At the very least, gather widespread audio/visual documentation of the scope of this activity, especially on the 4th, accompanied by affidavits of complaint and/or an online petition demanding that the law be enforced. The documentation could be supplied to numerous sources, both governmental, civil, and journalistic.

    There are other actions citizens could take, but then the lines begin to blur in terms of safety and legality. Of course, fireworks violators have already shown their contempt for such things but there’s no doubt in my mind that they would be the first to squeal and demand protection were they to be confronted.

    This year, let’s make it happen. Or rather, let’s make it STOP.

    newnative, there have been a couple of recent discussions about fireworks on NextDoor recently that have turned ugly as well and in the same manner as you describe. The current one, of course regarding the Seahawks/NYE fireworks, the other started maybe a couple months or so ago now, more specifically about the “Seahawks Cannon” that somebody sets off. The discussion has pretty much encompassed the Highland Park/S.Delridge/White Center/Shorewood/Arbor Heights areas. People have shared their stories about traumatized dogs (the Original Post was about a person’s dog being traumatized.

    In that earlier post, one of the neighbors went to the trouble of organizing a neighbor meet-up to get both sides together to civilly discuss the issue and see if a compromise could be worked up. I believe the original intent was to meet at a local coffee shop but there was so much interest expressed that the organizer reserved a room at the White Center Library.

    Within minutes, fewer than 10, IIRC, the meeting got ugly. There was yelling, swearing, and at least threats of physical violence, if not actual physical violence. The police were called, the meeting participants were kicked out of the library, and other people had already left out of fear of the violence getting worse. The organizer, who seemed to have nothing but the best of intentions of bringing neighbors together to resolve an issue was so humiliated that he left ND, although I believe he has returned.

    Both discussions have devolved into name-calling, and commenters going back-and-forth insulting each other. Also some nasty language. Makes me glad that WSB actually enforces their rules on commenters interacting with each other in a civil manner. I’m considering leaving ND these arguments and unenforced rules get so ridiculous. The minimal benefits I get from the site just aren’t worth it. (Yes, I know individual discussions, etc, can be muted).

    But, yeah, enforcement really needs to happen. Time and time again, for years, when I’ve read comments here on WSB, about fireworks, saying that the laws need to be enforced, in my mind I have agreed, *but*, have been of the mindset of how difficult, if not logistically impossible it would be to enforce, especially on July 4th, but repeated attempts at *civil* discussion, repeated reminders of how traumatizing the noise can be for pets and veterans, repeated reminders of the fire dangers and citing specific examples of homes burnt down by fireworks, and repeated reminders that fireworks are illegal in Seattle, and have very limited legality in Unincorporated King County, if not falling on deaf ears, are met with; “It’s only *one* day a year!” “Why don’t you just go out of town that day?” “Doesn’t bother *my* dog* any!” “They have tranquilizers/Thundershirts for your dog!”, “Why don’t you just board your dog for that *one* night?” “You’re Anti-American!”

    So, yeah, I really don’t have an answer on what to do other than maybe continued prodding of SPD/The Mayor/The City Council. :-/

    I can’t use the words I’d like to, here, to express how much I hate the attitude of people who light off fireworks and shoot cannons. They KNOW it scares animals, they KNOW it makes veterans uncomfortable, and they KNOW it wakes people up. They just simply don’t care, and have decided that it’s more important that they have their loud fun. And in the last few years, it’s not just the fourth of July and new Years, it’s every Sunday during football season, and then also at random times.

    But the same conversations happen every year. People are unhappy and upset, and the fireworks people scoff and say “you should know it’s going to happen” and “if you don’t like it you should move” and “you should have prepared your dog” (that was an actual comment on Facebook!). Victim-blaming at its best. But it’s all just their way of saying “I am more important than you are.” And those people will not change. But I promise, if I ever see anyone lighting fireworks in my neighborhood, I’m going to call 911 until the cops show up. I’m quite sure that the police don’t care at all, but I’ll make myself annoying enough that it will add at least one voice to those protesting this selfish behaviour. I’d encourage everyone to do the same, until the police are forced to listen.

    Unless enforcement were taken seriously, you can’t do much about fireworks. The discussion about this on Facebook got ugly once the pro-fireworks crowd started in with their usual blame-the-victim commentary.I’m sure most people do know that fireworks are illegal and just don’t care.

    I am one of the many pet owners who spent New Year’s eve trying to calm already tranquilized pets. The fireworks started with the first SeaHawks touchdown and literally did not quit in my Westwood neighborhood till 3 AM. By then my dog was a quivering mass roaming my house looking for any safety he could find.

    big deal.. right? No matter how much i treat my pet as a member of the family.. it’s only a dog, right?

    Well, no. Our neighborhood was the location of fatal gunshots this year.. and vets with PTSD live on this street.. as do new babies and a few elderly. the same fireworks that had my dog reeling in spite of the largest dose of tranquilizers i could safely give him left people reeling too.

    Those few minutes of “innocent” fun added up to hours of misery for many… a misery that is no longer confined to special occasions… unless of course you count any score for any major sporting team a special occasion.

    It’s particularly ironic that people who are outraged when someone else’s tree dumps leaves in their yard.. or blows those leaves during naptime .. or leaves a bag full of dog waste in their garbage can justify stealing the peace of their neighbors… it’s just innocent fun..

    unless of course you are the victim.

    Cat Sitting

    Length of cat sit is dependent upon the length of the clients trip, usually once or twice per day. This includes weekends and holidays. This service is for those who travel and want their cats to stay in the comforts of their own home.

    Overnight Pet Sitting

    Overnights are for those pet parents who don’t want to leave their pets alone overnight due to various reasons. You would need to stay in the clients home for a minimum of 10 – 12 hours depending on your pet sitting schedule.

    Most plug-in type sump pumps will be just fine for the receptacles in homes. The inrush isn’t something that should present much of a problem. They have floats that should control the pump. If this is a regular problem, however, you should consider a more permanent pump and control system. three float systems are really your best bet. These provide a deadband so the pump doesn’t cycle on and off when there’s water flowing and a high level alarm in case the water is rising faster than the pump can handle OR isn’t working. These systems start at about $1500 for all of the equipment but don’t include installation. It really comes down to how important is a dry basement?

    I prefer Zoeller.

    Our cats are indoor/outdoor cats. We bring them in at night because of coyotes and raccoons. Our last cat loved going outside and lived to be 17 yo. Bring them in at night, and make sure they are up to date on all their shots. Use red pepper to keep them out of your raised beds. Either the powder or you can get a red peeper spray with wax that is good. We live in a small house so they cannot get enough exercise staying indoors. Yes, cats can be hit by cars but so can people.

    I am recovering from an auto accident and looking for someone who is available during week days to drive me to 4 regular dr. Appointments each week (2 downtown and 2 in West Seattle which I may be able to move to accommodate your availability) along with occasional help with grocery shopping and picking up prescriptions. I live near the ferry and I am able to get in and out of a car on my own and walk short distances using a cane and some braces.

    Looking for responsible, reliable and friendly adult – possibly someone who is retired or working part time that has availability during week days and is looking for some extra money. I would need assistance from January 20th through March and possibly for another month or two after that.

    I used to agree that a cat is happier with some outdoor time… until we lost a cat to a raccoon or coyote. It was pretty traumatic. Maybe it’s selfish, but our cats are now indoor only.
