SO, HOW DOES THIS THING WORK?

This is a picture of me, trying to vacuum. 

I remember when Joey was afraid of the vacuum cleaner and I had to wait till Mark got home and could hold her, so that I could vacuum. 

I'm not sure if it is any easier to try to vacuum with Sam. 

She is drawn to it, like a cat to a laser pointer, but she can actually catch the vacuum cleaner!
