Kooler hates the blower. She knows when G gets the blower out of the shed and immediate looks for places to hide... before he even turns it on. Sometimes he waits til we are out on walkie .. and sometimes I can mitigate these episodes by using the vacuum in the house at the same time. I have found her hiding under G's desk, in the master bedroom shower ...

Yesterday, G used the blower to clean up leaves and pine needles. She hid in the bathroom shower while I brush my teeth after lunch. I left her there and started cleaning. I checked on her a few minutes later and she was not there. I looked in the usual places and no Kooler. Hrmph. Then I found her .... comfortably curled up on my futon in my office. She was so comfortable that she was not going to get off the furniture. I did not want to yell at the sared-episode-gurl, so I ended up picking her up and putting her on her own pillow.
