@viannafin I think she thinks they're snakes! i've also recently discovered that she's scared of cucumbers, celery, and other assorted fruits and vegetables!
@deviouskittin That's interesting :D Maybe her fear has just gradually generalized to include these other fruits and vegetables because all of them are under the same category.
@viannafin Yes well all of these items somewhat resemble snakes. I've also noticed her fear of shoes that look like they're made of snake skin. I've tried to desensitize her, but I fear it only made it worse. She even learned the word "banana" and would get nervous whenever she'd hear it. So I just stopped, for her sake.
@deviouskittin :D Well yes but if you watch pet shows you hear advice like these all the time. I'm not sure how well cats learn because they are not like dogs (they are more independent and "stubborn" :D) but it's always worth trying. :)

I wonder why she doesn't like bananas. There must be a very sophisticated reason behind it :D

it takes a little while to process the unsightly banana but she eventually does it, and then tries to look for an escape route
