See these dots on my hand?

Those are puncture wounds from kitties. They tend to bite or scratch when they’ve had enough pets or when the other cat walks by. My right hand perpetually now has several scratch marks and surface wounds at various stages of healing.

But this?

This gash on my chin was made by my own claws. I was a bit sleepy while doing my ablutions a few days ago and sliced open my chin with my own thumbnail as I lifted my hand to my hair.

The bleeding stopped by the time I left for school, but the bright red cut is still sticking around.

Oh, well. At least when they wound me, I get some good kitty purrs in first.

(That’s Hela’s drunk-on-neck-scratches face.)
