So, they are delivering something next door, and he heard the truck long before I ever heard it. Ran to the window and started looking around growling. He hates delivery trucks. Anyway, I told him nothing was there, a few minutes later they pulled up and started banging their doors next door. They were unloading something. I am surprised Nico was brave enough to get in the window and try to see it. You would think it was a truck that said "I hate cats." from the way he was acting..so funny, does your cat hate delivery trucks? Pic is not of Nico, Nico is a tux...but the similarity in body language is there..always scared, always on the alert for unusual phenonmenon.

Cats are funny, always scared. My cat fears everything, as soon as someone ring at the door he goes hiding.

@snowy22315 They seem to think that strangers come to kill them.

Wow he knew they were coming from far away. I love this photo! A cat we had years ago would run to the door and growl if someone came.

nico growls when he hears strange vehicles, or if someone he doesn't know is coming to the door.

He gets very wary of any trucks he thinks might be headed his way.

Great photo! Kitty used to run and hide in the closet when the Big Blue Monster (garbage truck) came by. But now she just looks at me and then goes back to sleep.

It would have to be a daily occurence for him to decide it posed no threat.

@snowy22315 I'm not sure how often the Monster comes.

That's a great photo but I love tuxs. Some cats are blase about everything but others don't like their routines upset.

Nicci definitely doesn't approve of delivery trucks or visitors that he has not authorized specifically

I think a guard cat might be just as good as a guard dog. They’re so alert, plus, some people have such an irrational fear of cats.

That sounds funny. We haven't had a cat in years, but when we did he always hid if my hubby's brother came over. I think that he sensed that he did not like him. Our dog, Nayla, used to really carry on if a motorcycle pulled into the yard. She hated the sound of bikes, and the loudest, the Harleys, were on the top of her hate list. And wouldn't you know it that both people that we knew that drove bikes rode loud Harleys.

Our two dogs hate the ice-cream van that passes every 2 hours - maybe it is the kind of music played that upsets them.

You never know, what the mysterious van with the strange music could be up to.. Let's face it, they bark at blowing leaves...
