LOL. Reminds me of a situation when one of my coworkers decided to get his cat to get too close to a dog. That cat ran up his shirt, onto his head and planted all its claws into his scalp. He had a very bloody head.
I used to have a big ol' black, long haired tomcat when I was a little kid that adopted me.
On two occasions I took him over to the river that ran along my grandparents house and tried to throw him in just to see if he could swim. (at the age of 7 or 8 one doesn't have much common sense)
Once the throw was attempted, the escape was made over my shoulder and down my back........LOL!
To this day I don't know why that cat took a liking to me and put up with all the abuse I think I gave it......
