Thanks, duly noted. I suppose I’ll have to take the extra measures of precaution a more healthy awareness would dictate.
I’ll have to discuss this with our house cat though, too.
I live with a couple of those too. I don't trust them any further than I can throw them. I know they are just waiting for me to let my guard down... their favorite hunting tactic is the "weave and trip", followed by the "midnight belly pounce". These are moves meant to incapacitate and render me vulnerable to a gang feeding. But I am on to them.
