Perhaps the cat running away is more literal? Could that cat represent an actual person?

I've only begun to realize the last few years how pervasive the fear of flying is. I work with several people that have to travel often and are terrified of it. One woman has to take either Xanax or lots of alcohol or combination thereof to curb her fears. She hates it. Another woman that I work with will opt to drive instead of fly. One time she drove from Arizona to Chicago for a meeting. Now that's just crazy! But her fear is so strong that it made more sense in her opinion. I'm glad you were able to get over this fear, traveling is such a wonderful thing that it would be a bummer if a component of it was anything less than kick ass.
