My cat is totally used to my vaping. If she's on my laps and I blow vapor right over her, she doesn't even bat a whisker. So it's not like she's scared of the cloud, or bothered by the smell.
But just a minute ago, she was sleeping on the carpet, a good 10 ft away from me. I started a dry-burn, blowing the acrid smoke gently away from me (and toward the cat - I didn't think she'd mind): she promptly woke up with a worried look and started coughing. That lasted 5 seconds, and then she darted off.
Wow, I didn't expect such a reaction, especially from that far away! Poor thing...
