In summary: I screamed like a little girl and the animal control guy threw the bag over the cat's head and squeezed. The cat went limp in the bag. It was one of the scariest things I've ever done, but I made it out unscathed. So I'm not exactly scared of cats, but I am definitely cautios about getting scratched by them. In summary, Moonbear was telling the story of how her cat Ember is doing, and how she is going through the terrible twos now. She also mentions how Ember is teaching her how to throw around kitty litter, and how the stray cat that had kittens a few

Are you sure you didn't roll over in your sleep and squash it? :nb)
Hehe. I sure didn't. It was a dream with a happy ending :smile:.

But boy, if that were to happen, I'd be like: My cat! :H.

... And terrified.

It won't happen, believe me. What will happen is, that you don't dare to move at all, because your cat found a pretty convenient place for herself and rather inconvenient for you, preferably somewhere between your legs. And you don't dare to disturb her. As a result you will wake up with some pain somewhere and still be tired.

I shall keep that in mind for when, if, my dream comes true.

OK, I'm going to assume you don't know the alternate meaning of what you just said. :biggrin:

Slightly more seriously, it's possible that a cat will want to sleep right across your face, since there's warm breath coming out of your nose/mouth. Once, when I was young, my mother happened to come into my room while I was sleeping and found exactly this situation, to her great alarm. She was surprised the cat had not already smothered me.

:oldconfused: There is an alternate meaning? *thinking* ...I swear I can't think of anything. I'm not good at solving riddles.

If it was a baby cat when, that must have been so cute! And funny.

Here is a gif video of a cat. Tip: If it's not already looping, right click it and check the loop. Enjoy the looping cuteness :partytime:.

Try Googling it. (I don't want to be more explicit here lest I get an infraction/warning.)

No, she was a fully grown black half-Persian, called "Sooty Puss", that friends of my mother rescued from an alley as a kitten. A lovely cat, but we had to curb her desire to sleep across human faces.

Ok, let's see... :wideeyed: Nope. Definitely not what I meant. I meant that we were happy. I hugged it and we slept next to each other happily without a care in the world.

Haha. That makes the phrase: "If not for sleep why is it made of warm." valid. :oldlaugh:

Can't remember if I have posted this video. It looks so fragile :cry:: https://i.imgur.com/SxW5RW4.mp4

The Electronic Cat.

My sociable cat interfered with me today when I was sorting electronic components (resistors). It is not advisable to mix cats with small components, but it is nevertheless pretty nice to have company when doing boring things...

True, true @Bandersnatch! It is truly both physically and emotionally difficult to keep that cat away from playing with small bags and things :smile:.

That reaction. Very cute. If you watch closely, you can see the water droplet.

I'll be off for a while. But if you feel sad, you can always watch photoshopped cat: Original (This one found in the comments)

Honestly, I could see this pic all day, and one month later I would still laugh if I saw it.
