OWWWWWWW

Since it's been so cold lately, we've felt sorry for the dogs, and let them stay in the house at night, and let them in and out as they please when we're home during the day.  That means in addition to we 3 humans, we also have 2 big dogs, 2 cats, and a bunny all under one small roof.  To complicate matters, the cats can't be in the same room together because they would fight to the death.  The bunny can't be in the same room as the dogs because the dogs would scare the bunny to death.  And sometimes the dogs want to fight each other to the death.  So in my bedroom behind the closed door is one cat (Domino), in Lilly's bedroom is the other cat (Sassy) and the bunny, and past the baby gate in the living room are the 2 dogs (Maddie and Lucky).  Maddie doesn't seem to care too much about the cats, but the cats are petrified of dogs.  Lucky, on the other hand, is completely fascinated by basically all other animals (especially ones smaller ones than her, which she sees as playthings-to-the-death).  We spend a lot of time making sure no deaths happen in our household.  :/

Well, a few minutes ago, Sassy walked into the hallway, and even though the baby gate was up (and Lucky was directly on the other side of it), she really wanted to go into the living room, dog or no dog.  Sassy attempted to scale the baby gate, but decided against it at the last moment.  Stupid me tried talking Sassy into letting me assist her into the living room.  I told Sassy it would be all right, and that I would help her, as I petted her and picked her up.

1 half-step over the baby gate later, "WWRRREEEOOOWWW HISSSSSSSSSSSS SCRATCHHHHHHH"

That's my side.  In the very tender part midway between the boob and hip.  OWWWWWWWW.

I don't get tattoos, I get cattoos.

And when am I ever gonna learn?  NEVER.  I'm never gonna learn!  :P

P.S.  Still no rain/snow/anything yet...!
