Called for a drink at lunchtime.
Had too many (nothing new there)
Next door neighbour to the pub have a cat (Furb...short for Furball as it's extremely hairy)
Cat came round to visit all the people in the pub beer garden as it does quite often, no problem at all. Unfortunately we had a dog visiting with it's owner's who decided it was safe to let it off the leash.
Cue one terrified little Furball, hairs up on the back and spitting.
Weighing the situation up, I decided that the logical thing to do was to get him back home. Picked him up (gently) just opening the back gate to put him down in his yard, when the dog (A lovely Staffie) decided to make an appearance again.
At this, the cat had a major panic attack, clawed it's way up my chest and face (scars to prove) leapt over the fence and through the cat flap.
The owners however, thanked me for my effort (probably still laughing at me) and made sure the little darling is tucked up in bed.
My good deed for the day.

Well done! I like cats. Make sure you treat the scratches, they have a habit of getting infected...Had too many (nothing new there)

You don't know much about cats, do you...?
What you did was save the dog, you 'tard.....
Oh yes, know lots about cats. The dog was a total psycho.. eating stones and threatening anything with a pulse. (Lovely dog though)What you did was save the dog, you 'tard.....
The only way the cat would have killed it, would have been by becoming stuck in it's throat
The scratches have now been treated (Bleach is good...but stings)
