It's Curtain for the Cat by ladymagpie

It's Curtain for the Cat

The other day I went down to my youngest Sons house to see to Milly the cat. Nine times out of ten she hides upstairs and ignores me, but this time I settled in the lounge with the television on for a bit.

Suddenly I heard her coming downstairs and she came in to see who had invaded her house. Lovely at first as she enjoyed a stroke and rubbed herself up against me. It was at this point she turned upside down to have her tummy rubbed.

How lovely I thought until she suddenly thrust her teeth into the back of my hand, quite deep and drawing blood. I gave her the thought that perhaps she doesn't know what she has done, but that lasted only a few seconds as she repeated her actions another twice. I also had taken my shoes off to go into the lounge and she try her best to bit me toes very hard.

Who needs a rottweiler guard dog when you have a cat with a Tiger in it's Tank. I had to go home and bathe my hand followed by a good coating of Sudocrem. It could have been curtains for the cat, or me.

Best viewed with the black background.
I had a cat that bit you if you touched her tummy.

@mave I'm sure I wouldn't bit if someone rubbed my tummy Mave.

How very unpleasant to have such an experience. Your shot is very nice though!

@cutekitty Psycho is a polite word Kitty, I'm going to wear boxing gloves next time I feed it.

A lovely capture, sounds a bit like Merlin. He only likes fuss on his own terms, then the teeth sink in. Fav!! 😀

We had a cat just like that, she only tolerated a few strokes then she turned on you! Very disconcerting it was too! Pretty cat too, short on patience I think!

@happypat I think she was trying to make her own patients, me in hospital Pat.

I think it’s best that she hides upstairs!

@susiemc If she doesn't I will instead Sue,

She looks so innocent, who would have thought that she was quite a threat. I would steer clear in future or I suspect it could be curtains for the cat.
