I was sitting at my desk and Andi (the cat pictured above) came in, purring and rubbing against my leg.

She wanted loves and snacks. So I picked her up and headed to the kitchen. She likes to lay over my shoulder, not be carried in my arms like a doll.

She was purring, I was petting her, and we were all happy.

I was focused on the cat and not watching where I was going. I ran into the dog who was laying across the hallway. I stumbled, he scrambled, and Andi’s claws dug in.

Now I have a couple scratches on my arm and a puncture on my shoulder. But Andi got her snacks so all is well.
