Bishko, one of my cats, needed shots last night to deal with her microsporum or sth., and the vet warned me not to get scratched or bitten during. So of course I said naaah, Bishop is a cushy nice kitten, she won't scratch or bite, while I wrapped her in a towel and looked away (I hate the sight of medical injections.) I was probably thinking Lyra, who never even noticed she's being given a shot.

Well, yes. That went as predicted. And because the vet said sometimes flea poop stays under cat's claws and infects the wound, one's glands will be affected, I now have a swollen red stab wound on my wrist and my hand hurts like Hell. 

Of course it does. 

I could have been wearing an anti b*mb suit and I would still get stabbed by a dirty kitten claw in this story.
