My Cat Saw the Vacuum and Now We’re Both Scarred

So, today I made the rookie mistake of vacuuming while my cat was in the room. You’d think I’d committed some unspeakable crime from the way she reacted—full-on cartoon jump, tail twice its size, and that look of utter betrayal. Now she’s hiding under the bed, and I’m left feeling like the villain in a Disney movie. What’s wild is how dramatic pets can be over the most mundane things. I mean, it’s just a vacuum, right? But judging by her traumatized expression, you’d think I unleashed a demon. Meanwhile, I’m the one who has to coax her out with treats and apologies. Anyone else’s pet act like you’ve ruined their entire existence just by cleaning? At this point, I’m convinced the real trauma is mine. #PetDrama #CatProblems #RelatablePets #Pets
