Cats and vacuums

I wonder if it is common to most cats but each time I switch on the vacuum Merlin vanishes behind one piece of furniture or the other. He is accepting it a bit now, I guess they donīt like loud noises

Re: Cats and vacuums

Mine hate it and retreat behind the furniture, Monty's hate wasn't too bad until I was giving the cat tree a once over with the small brush attachment and I didn't realise he was in one of the dens and as I ran it over the top he shot out at a rate of knots

Re: Cats and vacuums

Merson hates the Dyson with a passion and does a runner the minute he sees it coming out of the cupboard.

Oscar just ignores it and carries on sleeping wherever he is.

Abby is undecided so far. She watches it from a height but doesn't seem too fussed by the noise. I think she is more bemused that 'Mummy is stroking the carpet with a funny looking brush.....'

Re: Cats and vacuums

Our two absolutely HATE the vacuum cleaner. It's their least favourite thing in the world. Even the sight of it now sends them darting behind the sofa.

Re: Cats and vacuums

Re: Cats and vacuums

Rosie absolutely hates it and hides as soon as I get the cleaner out Mai Tai however would happily let you hoover her up She just sits there until you nudge her out of the way

Re: Cats and vacuums

Molly doesn't hate it as such, she just sits on the sofa keeping a very close eye on whoever is using it.
