Fizban ran outside last night when I had the sliding glass door open to unplug the Christmas lights for the night. She ran out, jumped off the deck and then stood there in the snow. I got my boots on and went outside just as she suddenly run under the deck.
I knelt down to look and she was huddled under there and gave me the most pitiful cry I ever heard from her. She started to come out and when her paw touched the snow she scooted back under.
I got her to come to the edge again and then grabbed her, pulled her out, and carried her back inside. She was very clingy for the rest of the night and didn't seem to hold a grudge for the way I dragged her out from under the deck.
This morning, she went over to the sliding glass door, looked outside, and then shook one of her paws like she had something stuck to it before running away. There was nothing on the floor and nothing on her paw so she must have looked at the snow and had a flashback.
