Aaack, what an adrenaline surge you and the kitties must've had! Purrs for
Internet's mouth to heal without incident and for you and DH's nerves to
recover!

Well, this is another one I've never seen, and it sure wasn't funny at
the time, but now that all is well, it was, well, a wild one!

I'm getting ready to feed the critters their second meal of the day.
Now, most of the time, they gather around me, and there is quite a bit
of half-hearted *smack-smack* going on, as they do their little "I'm a
bigger cat than you are" thing. It's normally quite harmless;
sometimes, they barely extend a lazy paw in another cat's direction,
without making any actual contact.

However, the other day was a different story.

I looked over, and Cosmo (who is such a hellion about claw-trimming,
that I have to resort to having the vet's office do it, since he turns
into a 50-foot terrifying black-and-white furry monster when I try to
do it), had somehow managed to connect with Internet. And I mean
*connect*. His claw was *stuck* in Internet's mouth! Now, Internet
has no teeth. So nothing blocked Cosmo's sharp claw as it made it
into Internet's gum.

I screamed at DH and ran towards them. DH came running. Cosmo and
Internet started running, still attached. All five of the other cats
started freaking out, and running like a herd of water buffalo through
the dining room and living room, knocking over anything in their path,
as Cosmo and Internet started rolling over in bizarre ways, trying to
get unstuck.

Finally, the Siamese cats were once more two separate cats! Except
for some blood in Internet's mouth, everyone was fine, and Internet
seemed more interested in eating than in any sympathy. He'll be on
antibiotics for a week, but he's fine, and so is Cosmo.

DH and I sat on the couch taking a lot of deep breaths for quite
awhile.

And of course, it was a Full Moon.

Life is never dull with 7 cats. I'm glad it didn't turn out any worse
than it did. Hope Internet heals quickly!

One amusing bit of confusion for me - when I first read the following:

I thought you were saying that Cosmo had connected *to the* Internet!
Like he'd gone online and started nasty rumors about you or something.
