I understand phobias really well. I have a deathly fear of snow plows and vaccuumes. Those things are horrible. So much so that I run and hide under the bed and won't come out for at least an hour. Phobias are funny things because they are different for everyone. Dad is deathly afraid of bees. One time a horse fly flew near him, he heard what he calls the "bee buzz sound" and took off in a sprint, slipped, scrapped both knees, got up, and just kept running. Chicken....too funny.
My roommate used to have a big cat phobia before she met Seth. Now she loves cats...well, him anyway. Also I saw this lady on Maury once (real credible, I know...) who was afraid of cats and her name was Fifi...ironic I thought! Anyway, the only animal I am really scared of is snakes. They give me the heeby jeebies just thinking about them. I think it is because they have no legs. They are so scary!
Mom says I'm a scaredy cat. I'm afraid of the dark, the light has to be on for me to eat my food. I don't like flashlights, this will send me under the bed, as will storms. I will go to whatever room the vaccuum isn't, I'm not afraid of nail clippers until you go to use them on me. We've just discovered that I don't like it when humans pat babies on their back to burp them, this will cause me to growl, as will holding them in the air. THere's probably more, but this is all I can remember.
