We shall name him--Tail-Grabber

Everyone who knows our cat, Fu Manchu, has been expecting this day for some time. It all began innocently (and photogenically) enough....




Then things started to go wrong....




And very, very wrong....


The rest is not pictured because I was busy intervening. You see, Fu Manchu decided to run away from the thing grabbing his tail. The baby decided to continue to hold on to that tail, even after he fell (possibly because he was too stunned to let go). Fu Manchu panicked and bit the baby in the face. The forehead, to be precise. The baby had hysterics, because of the fall and the biting. I soothed the baby and put neosporin on his head and now all seems to be well. It was just a tiny puncture and a long scrape. He's doing fine--and still reaching out to grab Fu Manchu's tail when the cat's nearby.
No, we did not drown Fu Manchu in the river. Yes, we still have three cats.
