After reading all these posts, now I don't feel so bad whenever I step on Nikolai, Little Bit, or Cookie. All 3 of these act as though they want me to step on them. And they give off t he most blood-curdling scream whenever I do. But I believe that they yell much more than it actually hurts them. Whenever I carry something large and have to walk through my pride, it has been found that shuffling your feet on the floor not only lets them know that I'm coming through, but also so that I do not step on any of them.
