Ritz was about 5 months old when this occurred. I have very straight hair. I decided one Saturday to curl my hair. I did so and came downstairs, and sat in the chair to have coffee. My spouse was complimenting the new look, and Ritz was sitting on the other side of the room, STARING....

Suddenly, she tore across the room, up the chair, up my back and sat on my back at the base of my neck with her back claws dug into my shoulders while she proceeded to scratch the living bejesus out of my hair (and scalp)...."attacking" the new do.

My spouse finally extricated her from my head and pulled the hair strands out of her claws and put her on the floor. I stood up, only to have Ritz climb the entire length of my body and back up to the head, scratching and swatting with a fury at what apparently looked to her like a monster attacking her meowmie's head!

I had neck and head scratches and finally after being removed and attempting a 3rd attack, I had to relent and go wash the curls out so she would calm down.

Apparently, I had adopted a cat and a built in fashion critic!
