    I just saw this when I was looking for another thread, and I had to answer! My Mack has brought a new meaning to trying to do housework. He is a 6 month old English Bulldog and I literally have to put him outside in order to sweep the kitchen floor or mop it! He goes beserk over the darned broom or mop!!! And when it comes time to spray air freshener, again, he goes beserk! When it is time to fill water bowls outside, or water plants, or sweep the deck, off he goes again, and then I have to put him inside! His goal in life is to "kill" the garden hose. LOL!!!!

    What a cute topic!

    My cats and bunnies are NOT afraid of the vacuum cleaner at all. Amazing. I sometimes have to yell "move" to the cats. They are very good at destroying any bed making progress each day...and when it is time to change the sheets...well, its horrible. They often hang down over the cabinets while I wash dishes and/or make food. They must think that I will give them something to eat and they want to be available. Dusting is fun too, but fortunately I do not like to dust that often.......to my mother's horror.

    I did have cats that were terrified of the vacuum cleaner. My mother suggested that if I used it more often, they would not have the problem! Not true.

    Dogs are a bit more of a pain in the neck when it comes to cleaning, I do believe.

    Neither the cats nor the dogs interfere with my housework, darn it.
    It's a great excuse though.

    I don't know if this counts, but I have toy boxes for the dogs toys (about 4 of them ) and I put all the toys away when I clean up...however, everytime I do this, Josie thinks it means she has to come right behind me and pull all the toys out again

    Mine are usually pretty good. They usually stay away when the vacuum is going or when I'm sweeping. Jake loves to grab and run off with my Swiffer Duster, he'll grab it right out of my hand.
