Thread: Re: Dangers to our cats

How easily accidents happen. This morning Simba was playing very happily with a large paper bag with string handles from Shepherd and Woodward. He was enjoying himself so much I let him play then suddenly I saw him panicking - he had put his head through the string handle and couldn't pull it out again so starting twisting his body round making the string handle tighter and tighter. Luckily I was there and quickly dived on him to stop him turning any more. I had to hold him quite tightly while I got the string off around his neck which by this time was quite tight. He didn't thank me and I have scratches and bite marks all over one hand but there is no question if I had not been there he would have strangled himself. Nothing is safe is it! The bag is now in the bin and yesterday I put blankets over the top of my radiators and I have gotten rid of most of my house plants but I feel like you can't take your eyes off them.

I have that book Tomian - got it before we got Simba - it is quite good but not very informative.
