Well, I am now sporting a large cut on my forehead.
We were outside raking leaves and the cat was having a great time zooming around, diving in piles of leaves, and stalking everyone.
Then Mr. wound-up kitty decided to climb the neighbours tree. And then got stuck. And then decided that best way to get down would be to walk out on a skinny branch about 15 feet up.
Of course you know how this was going to turn out. After much slipping, scrabbling, clawing, panicking, and a last desperate attempt to stay on the branch, down came one very freaked out cat. I caught the bugger, but as could be expected, catching a cat with flailing legs and claws is, well, painful.
I had leather gloves on so my hands are okay. My forehead... not so much. Ow.
Stupid cat.

I had to go out in a t-shirt, PJ pants, and FLIP FLOPS to climb a ladder to get him
