i got a few cat attack stories myself! i believe it was the same cat both times (my 5 year old that drown in my pool) she was an outdoor kitty, and one time my sister and i had her in the garage. there was this long skinny box (i was REAL young at the time, so i was just a tad bit taller than the box) we decided to put the cat, Blackie, in it to see what she'd do. so we did, and we stood the box upright. well, i try to peer inside to see what she was up to and the next thing i know, she jumps out of the box and scratches the left side of my nose (rather close to my eye) no perminent damage but it sure scared the heck outta me!the other time was when me and mom were at home and we brought Blackie in the house. she had gotten under the kitchen table, so i decided i'd crawl under there to try to get her out. well, she didn't like the idea of moving too much, apparently, cuz she whipped out her claws and nailed me right in the lower lip...worst part was that her nail kinda caught and stuck in my lip until mom helped her get it out (it's been a LONG time, but i'm pretty sure that's how it went!)
but my cat's the exact same way, Maria! Abbey is one of the most loving cats we have, but when we have strangers around, she becomes very protective and aggresive! no scratches yet, mainly just hisses and growls, but we can never be too careful! and it's not all strangers...usually ones with distinct smells, like smoke or other animals (or loud guests)...course, that's just Abbey. my other cats usually do fine around strangers...they get as far away from strangers as possible, but no aggresiveness. that's what i love about cats! so many different personalities! but they can be so tempermental sometimes!
