That makes me feel sick because I can’t have anything go near my eye ( like I can’t wear contacts because I freak out about it )

My painful cat encounter story is, I was trying to save someone’s cat in a tree so I climbed way up and grabbed it.

It got scared and wriggled and thrashed around so much that it fell…almost. It managed to hook a single claw into my forearm and was just hanging there…stretching my skin.

I could only freak out and scream and shake it off. Of course it landed on its feet and just sauntered away.

It’s ok, it was just the top eyelid near my eyelashes. Nothing actually went in my eye.
