My Ceaser is not in the least afraid of the vacuum cleaner. Collectively, all three ferts are curious when I roll it out but Jinx and (naturally) my biggest, Napoleon, run for the hills the second I turn it on except for Ceaser. He just follows it around while I'm trying to clean. Could this be a sign he's deaf or just one brave little guy? There's nothing else to indicate that he can't hear other than the stare he gives you when you're near (more or less like he's saying "What do you want?") Does anyone else have a fert with brass ones this big? Except for you, Laura H. (haha.) - Candy and the Sexless 3 [Posted in FML issue 4947]
