The Vacuum

Friend or foe - depends on who you ask....

Emma doesn't mind the vacuum - in fact sometimes she barks at it and tries to bite it.  She is a bit leery of the hose attachment though.

Winston HATES the vacuum and goes and hides in his bed whenever you turn it on.

As for the kitties - Aggie immediately leaves the room - she is terrified.  Ollie is uncomfortable and usually heads out as well.  Phoebe is okay so long as she doesn't think you are too close and Zoey loves the vacuum and loves to be vacuumed.  Check out this video of her - crazy cat.

On to the ferrets.  Madison is fairly indifferent, the little boys - Theo and Kai - they are pretty uninterested as well.  Harlow is a bit fearful.  Then you have Tabitha and Violet, both who have absolutely no fear and want to kill the hose attachment.  They bite at it and they don't even care when their whole head gets sucked up the hose opening - they are nuts...

The vacuum comes out at least once a day around here.  There is always hair, litter, etc that needs to be picked up so there is plenty of opportunity for the critters to interact with the beast from the closet....
