Oowweee, My Toes!

Why, oh why, doesn't the kitty-cat realise that my toes under the blanket
are the same ones that are attached to my body?

Last night, I must have moved in my sleep and got a wide-awake (= bored) cat
attacking the greeblies in the bed. I can remember the teeth sinking into
the flesh... Ouch!

The funny thing is, if I stick my feet out of the blankets, she doesn't
attack them.

Seriously though, cats have pretty good spatial awareness, right? I'm
curious why they don't seem to associate the body under the blankets with
the head poking out the top. Or does my cat know, but doesn't care...

Maybe he just cannot figure out that it hurts when you don't
have fur!

Things like these are what caused us to relocate our cats outside the
house.
