| What is your baby scared of? I found out today that Tommy is scared of electronic toys. It is the funniest thing! My son has a spiderman toy that sings itsy bitsy spider and dances, well he decided to play with it in the livingroom, and Tommy shoot out of the livingroom yelping all the way to my bedroom! He was scared to death! So I grabbed the toy and turn it on and he wouldn't come near me, just growled at it from at distance. As soon as I set it down he jumped on lap and was licking me, I think he thought the toy had hurt me! I told my son to make sure he keeps spidy up high now, because one day Tommy is going to get brave an chew spidy a new one! I tried to get a pic of Tommy running from spidy but it was just too blurry!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | The vacuum, of all things. He scurries off into a corner when it's running as if you're going to beat him. And he hates thunder. Other than that, he's practically fearless! |

| I have to put Tommy up when I vacuum because he tries to attack it, and we don't get much thunder here.

| Levi doesn't like the vaccuum either. He runs for his bed. Hank definitely hates thunder. Even the slightest sound of thunder and he heads for one of our laps. He has never liked stormy weather. |

| same here The vacuum! Emmy hates it. She barks and chases it; I usually try to just put her up when I start to vacuum. I don't think Oscar really cares about one way or the other. Emmy also HATES anything that plugs in (that she can SEE that I am plugging in)--mixer, blender, toaster, phone charger...but anything that stays plugged in is okay--lamps, coffeepot, can opener, etc. She is a crazy little lady! She also goes wackly when I dust--it seems she is afraid of the dusting spray and dustrag! I don't know?!?!?!?!?

| Otis doesn't like it when I'm cooking and something smokes or burns (which happens quite frequently when I cook) He runs to the opposite end of the house. Also, brooms, big leaves, and rain. Otherwise, He's fearless!!!

| WATER! bath time is awful... he won't go near us while we're in the pool, and if you're running one of those weird sprinkler things outside, forget it- he won't go potty in the grass (the dew in the morning is a little scary too) Cody doesn't seem to mind the vacuum, but we use a central vacuum system, so the noise is actually out in the garage... When we're outside by the garage, the sound of the vacuum turning on makes him jump a little all in all, he's pretty fearless- although if he thinks you're hurting him (i.e. picking him up to take him outside after an accident or getting shots at the vet) beware, because he will "scream" his head off |

| Adie isn't afraid of much but she avoids the vacuum. She barks and shys away from anything new in the house. If she hasn't seen it before she doesn't trust it. It doesn't take her long to work up the courage to examine an item and get over it though. |
