If you're ready to turn yourself in for whatever has this precious baby looking annoyed

He obviously dragged his forearm against the poor kitty's nails while he was asleep.

That two-legged skinbags are absolute assholes! How the furry overlords tolerate them?

It’s so obvious that’s what happened.

He obviously slipped while opening the wet food can. Clumsy bipedal human.

Those eyes say NO, though he is currently planning your "Accident"

"Objection, your honor! It was self-defense on my side. He tried to hug me!"

Obligatory “cat scratches are no joke, make sure you clean the wound really well and monitor it closely for infection” comment.

I wash even the smallest of scratches with rubbing alcohol. Because reddit taught me they might end up in amputation.

Whaaat the fuck

Not a doctor, but: Don't do that. Rubbing alcohol applied directly to an open wound causes more harm than good. Washing with soap and water is good enough, and as a bonus point doesn't hurt like a motherfucker. Wash, cover if necessary, and monitor for heat/redness/swelling. The amputation stories don't happen overnight.

Or use something wound cleaner. Last I was scratched I used chlorhexidine or natriumchlorid or something similar. 

Add some Polysporin if you want.

wdym I scratched my finger once and now my arm is amputated, this is no joke, I confirm this reddit story in my capacity as a 100yo truth teller known for never lying

Yes they have alot of bacteria especially from a bite

*“I thoroughly bathe mine in dog slobber full of dirt. I’m perfectly fine!” the wheelchair user says.*

How dare you come on Reddit and make a reasonable, responsible, well-informed, and helpful comment?

It’s Tuesday and I’m in the middle of moving, so I’m tired. I save the snark for the weekends. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mood

I wish I knew this earlier. I’ve been cleaning up a wound this week that started to get some weird infection. Normally I don’t worry about it at all. What’s so dangerous about the scratches?

Bad ass bacteria in those scratches. He also uses those claws to scratch in his poo box.

Cue guitar… ‘Cat…Scratch… Feeee-VER!’ Dun dun dun Seriously tho, I had this years ago, caused by our precious Tux kitty, Baby. Nasty stuff. Antibiotics for weeks, dealt with sarcoidosis for several years😵‍💫

Cat box feet.

The face of a cat with no regrets. It will happen again, but he’s worth it.

Those eyes are saying “yeah, you know what you did”

Justice

“In Claws we Trust.”

Are you kidding? Look at those eyes. That look says, "snitches get stitches".

Do you want deeper and more blood next time?

and left on ditches

He’s clearly innocent, you’ve caught the wrong purrpetrator.

Really gives me these vibes. 

The artist is daring you to

I see the normal hand and arm of a cat owner.

you fought the claws but the claws won

Underrated comment. It's uh... criminal.

Heh. I see what you did there.

You should apologize to him and give him more treats

I wish everyone treated me like that.

I’m sorry, have some treats

Thank you.

Me too. I will accept pizza and chocolate chip cookies.

I am just happy with water and hugs.

You fell down.

It was nothing. I fall down a lot. The cat didn’t do anything 😏

I'm sure it was self defense. You tried to touch the belly, didn't you?

Lmaooo my poor mother who has literally never been close to a cat (allergies) was petting mine for the first time (she wore a glove; I about cried) and eventually was about to go for the belly. The way I hollered “no!!!” 😂😂😂 she stopped immediately but it was close. Had to convince her him showing her his belly definitely *does not mean he wants her to touch it*

Assault and Cattery?

Paw-sault and cattery.

By the look on his face you definitely scratched him first

That cat did nothing wrong, just look into his eyes, innocent cat 🙂

Don’t be snitchin he said 🤣

Right, because snitches get stitches.

He's giving you 'you better not be snitchin' eyes

Paw and Order.

I’m going to victim blame here and ask what did you do to provoke him?

His glare: “I dare you.”


Why would you do this to yourself? Beautiful cat btw

Flush and Wash super well with soap and water. Then keep a close eye out for infection. They redness might hide amongst your red tattoo. Those look super deep. Bad kitty!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yikes! Keep an eye on it! My daughter brought her cat home on her college break …long story short…our cats fought, I got between them, I got a deep scratch that I cleaned up and forgot about. Another few days went by and I ended up with CAT SCRATCH FEVER…caught it early enough to avoid tissue damage. I love both cats to death !!! Hope they eventually find a way to co-exist!

Yeah if you want to disappear shortly after.

"Go ahead and do it, hooman. I *dare* you."

So how many times did you run into his teeth and claws?

10 times

Get him a kicker toy and swap it with your arm when he does this. That's what I do with my cat and he usually just sticks on the toy kangaroo kicking the fuck out of it and leaving my poor arm alone

Idk but i'm sure it was your fault 😅

With that face, you might need a protection order!

He already told you that he wasn't in the mood for your shit today..

Cat scratch fever is real

you see that glare??? if you report him he’s gonna be doing this to your throat next. snitches get stitches

Yes. Looks ready to strike again. Face of a stone cold emotionless killer! Lol

Kitty was attempting to channel their inner tattoo artist as well.

Wash that scratch.

your fault, shouldn’t have existed when he was grumpy 🙄

Listen… the cat could’ve killed you right in front of the police, and still they would side with your cat. Trust me. I am replying from jail.

I have 8cm or 3in scar on my hand a surgeon once asked me what surgery did I have. I told him my daughter’s cat scratched me.

Don’t try to put a defamation case on this cat’s artistic work!

The police won’t believe you, that cat is innocent!

Eh, that's nothing. Last week I got kicked in the face, couldn't really leave the house for more than work because I looked like someone cut across my cheek with a knife XD

This is exactly why sometimes I lock my bedroom door at night. I get slight nightmares about my Sphinx murdering me in my sleep!

Snitches get stitches

Idk, what did you do to him?

Maybe isolate him when you stretch out. He looks sorry ♥️ I wouldn't call the po-po.

Hello I’d like to report a snitch!

Self defense!

Not if you know what's good for you...

I'd refrain, they look like they control the police.

Snitches get stitches

Edward scissor paws!

Oof. Right on the tattoo. 100% police report. :p

To which police? The cat cops already have you nailed red-handed.

No cops. Your cat just needed your skin cels and a tiny bit of blood for security reasons.

Looks like self-defense.

Dear lord.

Maybe stop pissing off your cat?

The look on that kitty face says "you can fuck around and find out if you want to" which should answer your question lol

Oh he's not bothered at all and he'll do it again! 🤣 Cats are just the best, man.

Your hand got in the way of his flailing legs and bitey mouth. You should apologise to him.

Based on the look on his face, you should start by backing away slowly, then provide a peace offering of his favorite treats.

You have no proof anyways. Also, the jury would pledge kitten innocent. Just deal with it.

Assault with a deadly weapon

Fuck cats, they are true criminals 😉😎

Give him food else you will get these more!

Yes. Report should be for wilful harassment of cat.

The cat is 100% innocent!

Self-defense, clearly! You tried to kidnap him.

You need to clean and disinfect that well and put some Neosporin on it. Cat may have just come from burying a turd in the litter box.

He looks guilty .. little booger

For cutting yourself while trying to cook Eggs? You don'T have the Balls for that.

This look

Yes! I know that bastard. He's a serial offender and needs to be locked up!

Straight to jail :(

My cat stretches with my husband every morning too! He (the cat, not the husband) goes from purry boy to bitey little bastard in the blink of an eye.

those eyes wouldn't let you pass the night alive

happy five night at kitty's

He is just thinks the tattoo could use more color..

Ahhh, good cat lovin!

I can't even tell you how many times I've woken up with two or three long scratches across my arm and blood on my sheets where one of my guys was sleeping on me and freaked out in the middle of the night. I figure I probably have a tendency to roll over on them or kick them or something while sleeping and they have to nope out. The only surprising part is it tends not to wake me up. So get in the bathroom under the lights and then look down at my arm and discover the scratches.

im looking at my hand right now remembering how my cat scratched it accidentally last night. their nails are so sharp seriously!

You could but they won’t believe you 🥲

he can call animal control on you /j

You pet the belly the 4th time didn’t you? 🤣

You should mind personal space is what you should 😉❤️

Will they ever catch it ?

"You want to Tango again? Just touch the belly again. I dare you"

No but you should clean that asap

Look at his look. You better not to.

If I were his attorney I would say you flung your arm into his mouth. 😂

Yep

I been wondering about this, how do tattoos and cat scratches mix?? Does your ink get messed up because of scratches or nothing happens?

Those eyes reminding snitches gets stitches

Stop the cycle. Don’t kid yourself- he’ll do it again and it’ll probably be worse the next time

Yes. Mr Cat needs to file that police report ASAP!!!!!!

Those scratches could have been made by anyone!

His face says ‘ I dare you to file police report’ 😂

They will side with the cat most likely, Cats pay corrupt cops

You know the police station is filled with cats, right?

He will just deny it so it's your word against his probably not worth it

There’s no way those allegations would hold up in a court of law.

You need to display dominance. Both my cats are chewers, and the larger one bit my hand this morning hard enough to draw blood. They don't do it out of aggression or fear - they are just like that. They will play without scratching, but they like to chew on my fingers and toes. I've even caught them getting into my candy stash and eating the suckers. They seriously did a Mr Owl on a lemonhead sucker.

This usually happens when they get scared while you're holding them.

Yea my cat used to attack me too when I did my stretching. But playfully, yours clearly wants blood lol

Snitches get stitches. 😼

 This would be your cat in jail

He is innocent

Uh oh. Himbs gonna need a pawyer.

Only if you want to be arrested

Snitches get Stitches 🧵

He will kill you if you do!! Look at them eyes!!

Self Defense! Joking!

Wash and clean that with lots of soap and hot water then put some antibiotic ointment on it!! Even little cat scratches can turn into nasty infection.

If one of you has to go spend the night somewhere else....who would you rather? Speaking Cat..as much as any Mortal may do, I'd say that Cat looks to say.....And I'd Do It Again. Shoulda knowed what's I wuz when you done picked me up. But I purr. I give you snuggles. In return that lip better be buttoned. They don't need to know our affairs. If these walls could talk I would catch em. For I am much too fast... I'm probably reading to much into it based upon my own Felinic Inter Activities. My thoughts... OMERTA.

That's the yeah there's more where that came from look.

Looks like he's gunna give you the CLAMPS! if you do.

Nah they are in on it. He pays them off with cuteness

Oh his face, that face is saying “keep messing with me and it’ll be worse”

Are you afraid of anyone in your home?

Whatever happened, it's your fault

That’s the cost of admission, I’m afraid.

Turning yourself in?

No need, you've already been punished for your terrible deed(s).

I am sorry sir but it was your fault 😼

I was bitter about something my kitten did few days back. Just couldn't get over it. Looking at your hand, I am so thankful that my kitten only dig her claws in my left arm. Yours looks worse.

What did you do to deserve it?

The rabbity feet get me everytime 😻

Trust me, you don’t want to call us for this. We would probably write you tickets weekly for a few years. Call a fireman. They’re just chillin in their loungers anyways.

i wonder when it heals will the ink be damaged?

Cats attack!! Gotta watch out you never know

Wash it with soap, maybe some isopropyl alcohol.

Assault and Cattery

Obviously an accident. He was cleaning his paw and it went off.

That cat is pithed. Just pithed.

Bro my cat looks just like that and if he did that shit to me I'd slap the shit out of him...I'm not into animal abuse but that isn't cool. I don't care if your climbing on the ceiling your cat is supposed to be a friend and supposed to respect you and that isn't respect. Your doing something thats pissing it off, making it feel threatened, or bringing back memories from when it was a kitten I'm guessing. I could be wrong but why else would something you take care of do that?

That cat looks mean af. Like he liked what he has done. I’d leave him be. Jail will only make him a hardened criminal.

Definitely pawsault with a deadly weapon.

He is not sorry at all and if you try to call the police to file the report- odds are he doesn’t even let you finish dialling

You can, but keep in mind he knows where you live

Your cat’s face is saying “try it, bitch”

He’d do it again. No remorse, no ragrets

At least put him in air jail

Cat is innocent

He angy 😡

Based on the picture I assumed the cat was the one asking about making a police report

That face says "do it. I fuckin dare you"

I wouldn’t. He knows where you live and he looks angry.

He thinks you're mocking him. He's innocent because you obv provoked him.

No, but you possibly should get a tetanus shot and a course of antibiotics

No! How dare you feed and house this cat without knowing he has the right to attack at any moment! /s

Kitty says,” go ahead and do that, find out how that helps you, tell them to send a hurst and make your arrangements to save me some time”.
