if it makes you feel better.....


i was leaving my mom's house with eddie in my arms...i closed the door with my foot when i had a sharp pain between my shoulder and nipple....

it took me about two seconds to count THREE claws
in my skin......i said to eddie, LET GO.....

he wouldn't....

when i tried to pull him close to me to take the
tension off my skin, he'd pull in the opposite and most painful direction.

again, i asked him to 'let go'.......nope, no good..

i put the glass i had in my other hand down and tried to get the squirming cat still so i could
get his claws out of my chest....

after about 20 seconds, and the "help, my cat has punctured my breast and will not let go" dance, i managed to pull him close, keep him still and get his paw dislodged from my chest......YEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW.

moral of the story?

please keep your arms, legs and TAIL inside the car until the ride is over.......

and

don't close the cat's tail in the door...
