ObT:  Woke up to the cat licking my face, which means I'm either very
filthy, or he's very hungry.  One of these days, he'll get big enough,
bored enough, and hungry enough to just decide "Aw, fuckit" and start
digging for my jugular.

I wouldn't think such a thing was possible, had I not known of cats that
had actually killed dogs.  Not big cats killing little dogs.  Big cats
killing big dogs.  The big cat in particular was a piss-mean Siamese that'd
basically attach itself to the face of the dog-du-jour (a-la Alien) and
rake its throat with its hind claws (typically done to other cats in an
attempt to eviscerate them).  The stricken dog would then bleed to death if
the owner wasn't able to hold the panicking pup down long enough to bandage
the ragged wound.  I don't remember if these killings were done in
self-defense or out of spite.  I guess there weren't enough eyewitnesses to
the attacks, only to the aftermath.

Why does this concern me?  My cat's part Siamese.  The big part.  Nice
kitty...
