I have FINALLY found something that my kitten Rocky is afraid of.
Stereo headphones.
I was sitting on my bed with the headphones on, and he was walking by. He looked me up and down, and when he saw this thing on my head his ears went back and he started backing up out of the room. I got up to see what the matter was, but I still had the headphones on (dumb human) and when I walked over to him and leaned down to look at him he leaped backwards four feet. By this time, Angel, his foster mother, came over to see why I was tormenting her poor kitten. (Of course, she tried to kill him when he first arrived, but we shall not speak of that anymore.)
I couldn't figure out what his problem was, but he seemed okay, so I left him alone. I thought maybe it was just the kitten crazies. About two hours later I removed the headphones and Rocky made his move. He went for the headphones and used his paw to beat it into submission. The battle went on for about five straight minutes. During that time I was laughing so hard I fell off the bed several times.
I'd like to hear from other folks on the board. What items in your home have your cats battled into submission?
