Well not quite, but....

This morning I was having a look at TCS before going to work. Now the computer chair is disputed property between the 2 boys, and they were sat down one either side of the chair, slapping each other, jumping up and down, and bickering. After I'd had my feet run over a couple of times and cats leaping on and off my lap and batting each other I'd had enough, so I went to stand up to shoo them away.... and Radar, who was standing up with his front paws up on the edge of the seat, bit my leg!!! He is such a horror, I suppose the lesson to be learned is don't sit between 2 arguing cats.

I'm going home early because it's right at the top of my leg at the back, and it hurts to sit down. Fortunately he didn't bite hard, more of a nip, but he's just broken through the skin and it's all bruised and has bled under the skin.

That cat is not in my good books right now!

To Radar: Don't bite your Meowmy on the bum. It's not nice.

Be really careful watching the bite though. If there's red around it get a marker or a pen and draw around the red so that you can easily see if it gets bigger.

Cat bites can get seriously infected quickly, if it's just a shallow scratch the odds aren't too bad but it's still worth watching very carefully.

Did you happen to sit on somthing tasty, or possibly a jingle ball if so maybe he had an excuse....

Otherwise BAD Radar, biteing people's bottoms gets you in trouble.

The points of his teeth barely scratched the skin and I gave it a good wash, there aren't deep puncture wounds so I'm not too worried. It's mostly just bruising.
