You know it is.

mine went feral and had to be put down

My last cat hated my daughter's Furby. We had to hide it from him.

Why I'm afraid of Furbies: Had a nice white one named Snowflake. One day I walked in the room with it and said "Hello Snowflake" and he looked RIGHT AT ME and said "Me not Snowflake, me Cocoa." I said "No your name is Snowflake" and he repeated himself, looking right into my eyes. I smashed it apart and buried it.
