Thread: Kitty claws in my scalp! :-o

  1. #1

    Kitty claws in my scalp! :-o

    Have you ever been woken up at 3:00 AM, just as you were finally drifting off to peaceful sleep, by a kitten jumping onto your head at full force with all claws extended?

    Let me tell you what, it ain't fun folks!

    My boyfriend and I slept on an air mattress last night because we had just finished painting our bedroom and it reeked of paint. I guess Sophie and Tito were wrestling around last night and Tito scared Sophie and she unintentionally landed on my head! I thought I was having a heart attack! I guess I'm lucky she didn't puncture the air bed with her little claws. Good thing I trimmed them Saturday too!

    Here are a couple new pics of her I took this weekend:





    That's Sophie, my little bunny butt!!

    That's called a "Cat-a-Comb"

    Egad!! Ouch! Wilber pounces on my legs at all hours of the night. I am covered in my down comforter and I don't know if it's the lumps or the crinkles noises or what, but Wilber will rock his front two paws from side to side and dive into the blanket right where my legs are. I've started sleeping with the water bottle! He never even touches Mike.

    Look at that sweet, adorable little face!! How can you be upset with her just trying to "fix" your hair... (Whine)"You messed it all up when you were sleeping Mommie!"(End of whine)

    Richard - Cat-A-Comb should be added to the Furminology Dictionary!! LOL!!

    DJ - Sophie will be about 3 months old July 1. We got her May 8th and the vet estimated then she was 4-5 weeks old, so we set her b-day as April 1. She's a cutie!! If you look at her pic in my siggy, and compare it to her now, not only have her eyes changed color, but her ears have gotten huge! She's also more than doubled her size since we got her!! She's three whole pounds now!

    You're next in line after me

    I can't believe such an innocent-looking sweetheart would do such thing!!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I'm in line for the kitty kissing party! Not a very nice way to be woken up, but think of how much worse it would have been if you hadn't trimmed those daggers! I have a cerebellar hypoplasia kitty (everyone do their home work now, and look it up)! Eli needs to have his claws kept sharp as he uses them for balance and to climb onto things. I have to be on guard when he's in the bedroom at night as I like to kick my legs out from under the covers. Not very enjoyable when Eli wants up on the bed and my leg is in his way. I have had to un-hook him from my skin! He's so gorgeous though that he can be forgiven too. *sigh*

    Oh yes, many times I have been awakened from my sleep from sharp little kitty claws and like you said, "It aint fun".

    But look at that sweet little angelic face and you can't help but forgive her.

    Ouch! I've never had claws in my scalp or a "cat a comb" but I have had 20 pound heffer Ripley jump on me in the middle of the night with claws extended right into my stomach. You could see right where both paws - 8 claws - landed from the puncture wounds in my skin.

    Sophie sure is a cutie. I could never stay upset with that adorable face looking at me.

    ROFLOL!!! Sorry but the visual cracked me up!! I was already laughing and then Richard with his Cat-a-Comb put me on the floor. What a great way to start the morning. Sorry LizzieLou that it was at your painful expense!

    I can not believe how much that little bunny butt Sophie has grown! WOW!!

    We need some more pictures of her and Tito together.
