    I voted:

    Max - not only the vacuum cleaner, but he is scared stiff of a gust of wind......it's really quite funny

    Speckles - not too frightened of much. Pretty laid back except when it comes time for meds.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    The big, scary vacuum cleaner for sure.

    But funnily enough, Tabasco comes out soon after it's gone because he LOVES supervising the rest of the housework. He follows me around while I'm dusting, mopping and particularly sweeping. Maybe he managed a team of cleaners in his previous life ...

    Oh oh, just look at the result: The mean evil vacuum cleaner seems to be the biggest horror in the feline world! Luna totally agrees btw!

    Well. I voted vacuum because that's what Eliza and Mozart are super terrified of... although ELiza is just as terrified of visitors..

    I'm not sure what bach is scared of.. he follows the vacuum.. to make sure i get every single spot I guess.. but if it gets close to him.. he hits it LOL. Oh wait.. yes.. he is scared of baths.. doesn't matter if its wipes. or bath baths.. he HATES it!

    I voted for vacuum cleaner. Mandy hides even before I turn it on. Hayley is not really afraid of it but she stays off the floor and watches me from her cat tree or a chair. I thought about voting for car rides because Mandy get really sick but I was thinking that maybe she just gets motion sick and is not really afraid.

    The EVIL vacuum cleaner -here as well.
    But there are some strange other things: We have some CD's with nature sounds. And there is also one with howling timberwolfs: You should see Tigris airplane ears before he runs for cover

    I voted for the vacuum cleaner, but Juni is also afraid of going outside and of the elevator. Strange, she's not afraid of the outside and also the elevator when we come back home. She gets in the elevator and out at our floor. She's just afraid of GOING outside. Silly kitty.

    My cats are very scared of my small table-vacuumer. I use it to take away the breadcrumbs from the breakfast-table. Inka is scared to death...; but, she is not scared of the large vacuumer...

  14. Edwina LOVES visitors and, although she does a very dramatic exit when the vacuum comes out, she doesn't go far. So it is a toss up between the vet and water. The vet only occurs once a year (and she wasn't too badly behaved this year) so it goes to water. She HATES water. I think that is why she doesn't surf the kitchen counters -- there is a sink. Wiping her feet with a damp cloth is difficult enough....I can NOT image bathing her!!!
