"How embarassing would this have been..."

My cat was scared of all the fireworks yesterday, so I went to pick her up to give her a cuggle and wuv, but she span round and sunk her teeth and claws into my arm - leaving a massive gash across my wrist. I reckon a bit deeper would have got the vein and left me bleeding to dearth on the floor...

I have an BullMastiff, and he's still a puppy, but one massive mother, approx 11stone, and hell, when he stand on his back legs he can put his front paws right over my shoulder, so I find it embarrising when my mates come over when he jumps up at them, he can litleraly knock them on their bum, not to mention the slobber factor, and not to mention most women run when they see the size of my dog

Because its freaky, a cat that trys to commit murder O_o;;
kinda weird when you think about it.

We had a stray dog running round at work and locally all-day on Sunday. A bleedin' Alsation it was, too. When you tried to call it, it just ran away. People though it must gotten scared from the fireworks the night before, and that it'd run away and gotten lost...

Bloody hell, this is an "English German Shepherd", for crying out loud!
I didn't think they could get scared - I thought they were only meant to scare the living daylights out of you...?

I remember reading not long ago about some woman that had died because her cat caught a varicose vein.
Why the hell does this stuff stick in my mind ?

wow,
close call X_X;;
if the cat keeps acting up, if the fireworks have reaaly frightened it, take it to a vet or something, or a cat person helper... and see if its alright.
My cat is acting a bit weird, we just moved house, its still in a bit of shock.

Anything less than an amputated (by a road sweeper) leg is but a flesh wound.

People will think you tried to top yourself with a Bic razor.

Now I have the wrist of a goth girl.
