Misty and the mother-in-law

Eliana had a thing about cats and didn't want one to touch her in
any way. Naturally, Misty took advantage of this by coming down the
stairs and going to rub up Ellie's leg. It's hard to put a finger on
what it was about small furry animals that gave Eliana the creeps, but
she got them whenever a dog or cat was within arms reach.

It's probably similar to the way many of us feel about large spiders,
snakes, rats, moths, etc. It's hard for me to imagine, but not everyone
understands my phobias, either.
