    My cat is terrified of the vacuum, cleaner, and so is Timber. Leather doesn't care. Icarus doesn't like it, but will sit still and glare at it. Frisco is afraid of it, but if I bring it in his cage he'll attack it.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Honey is scared of the vacuum cleaner, Digger doesn't care, Chubby doesn't care, Prince just walks away, and Nelly just puts her crest up... wondering what that awful noise is. And Otis just looks at it.

    I didn't vote because one is and one isn't.

    Simba is sooo scared of it, we normally let him outside when we vacuum. Nala is fine with it and acts like it's nothing.

    Mine don't care about it. Sometimes, I'll have to vaccum around them, because they're to lazy to get up.

    Chester’s not afraid of it. He wants to kill it! He gets really PO’d when I take off the covering and vacuum the ugly couch for some reason.

    Must be a terrier thing. Basil wants to kill the vacuum, too. Actually, he has taken a couple of good chunks out of the plastic parts! Now I put him out, or I can't get the vacuuming done. He also kills rakes, so when we rake, we have to lock him inside. Goofy dog.

    Chester's tried to attack the lawn mower and the weedeater outside, so he gets locked in for that.

    He also likes the swiffer.

    That's so cute, moosmom!

    I always put Malone in his crate when I vaccuum, and he really doesn't like it. I know I vaccuum too long when he takes up howling at the same pitch. Marigold usually runs and hides under the bed.

    I have 4 scaredy cats when it come to the vacuum cleaner. I have to put them in my room while I vacuum the rest of my condo. They're pretty much used to the routine now but when I first adopted Sunny, he'd hide under my bed for at least an hour after I had finished vacuuming.
