When I got home from work today, Nuggy came out to greet me which thrilled me to death as he hasn't done that since last Thursday. He followed me up the hall and made his way very cautiously into the kitchen. I watched him very carefully to see if he could give any clues as to what was scaring him. He slinked under the table, bobbed his head up and down as he was slinking towards the........................IRONING BOARD!!!!!!!!! I had set the ironing board up Thursday as my son needed some shirts ironed and I just hadn't put it away as the others like to lay on it. So I usually keep it up for a few days for them. I never even gave it a thought that this is what was preventing him from entering the kitchen. So I picked him up and put him in my room and went back into the kitchen to take the ironing board down and put it away. Went back to get Nuggy and brought him back into the kitchen, sat on the floor with him and when he realized that the big bad board was all gone, things are back to normal. Mind you, he was still a bit nervous at first, but tonight is doing much better.
So the saga of the scared little boy has been solved.
Many thanks to all who gave opinions, advice and their input on this.
