Ailurophobia
I cannot stand to have cats around me.
With their soft purring and coat so furry,
to most persons, they are warm and cuddly.
However, their presence installs a fear.
I don’t know exactly what I have here.
Those creatures also have sharp teeth and claws.
An early encounter may be the underlying cause.
