What's your pet's favorite threat?

[Deja Q]

My parrot HATES anything that's dark brown. Brown boxes = terror. Wearing brown = terror. Even from 20 feet away the poor thing will go bonkers if it sees the color.

The parrot also hates bright day-glo yellow, orange, and pink for some reason. :crazy:

1. Cage cleaning day

They finally have everything just how they like it ,and I come mess it all up and they can't find anything.

3. My dog is afraid of stairs.

Not entirely sure why.

8. One of my sister's dogs is afraid of stairs too

He just refuses to go up them, and has to be carried up, and it's not fun, because he isn't a light weight.

11. I guess I'm glad it's not just my dog

Ours is pretty hefty too--a lab. When we say the word "stairs" he hides in a corner. He's a freak.

4. Your parrot must have been traumatized by something brown!

Maybe a UPS man?

My kitty is terrified of the outdoors. She'll only go about 1 foot from the door, and then turn around in panic.

5. Oh, god, what isn't? The pizza man knocking. The cat deterrents

going off (motion sensors hooked up to compressed air - WHAT AN INVENTION!). The rip of velcro.

Another cat hissing.

A fly taking off from the wall! That sets off a true cat bomb, because they all scatter, then half of them come back to chase it.

HT - lord bless you, I hope you never bring your groceries home in paper. All those rattly brown bags....

6. Our favorite cat who went to kitty heaven in January after 13 years

was scared to death of plastic grocery bags after having wrapped one around his foot one time. My funniest memory is watching him run around the house with the bag hooked up to his foot and inflating bigger and bigger with each running step...like a huge parachute following him and getter bigger the faster he tried to run away from it.

And scorpions. He was stung by a scorpion as a kitty and we always knew when a scorpion was in the house because he would flatten himself to the ground and slither under the bed.

7. My dog is afraid of things you can blow up

like balloons, bubble gum bubbles, anything like that, he just runs away me as fast as he can, and hides.:scared: :scared:

9. My Pet Cat runs when I put on an oven mitt.

[Dukkha]

10. the vacuum cleaner

The cats go running when I take it out of the closet.

They don't like my lightsaber either. :)

12. Twitch was afraid of the front door, the back door, and open

windows. Anything that lead out of the house. My son rescued her off the back porch, and she'd never go near an egress after.
