Oh suuuuure she looks sweet here but in reality she is a flying ball of fur and teeny tiny claws! It has been a long time since I have had a kitten and I had forgotten what they are like when they are really little and before they can get their claws removed. I have tiny claw marks covering my arms, hands, legs, and feet. The worst part though was when I woke up the other night and Luna was standing on my face. I reached to move her and it must have scared her because she tried to run, digging her claws into my face. I hesitantly got up to look at the damage in the mirror and was shocked! I looked like a vampire! Blood all over my hands and face. She is lucky she lived through that night.

I am not the only one being abused by little Lunatic...the dogs are being tormented on a regular basis. They walk through the house with a kitty hanging from their tail. My accessories are being rearranged and my floor lamp with the paper shade took a hit the other night. It sits next to the couch and apparently caught her eye for the first time because she all of a sudden leaped from the couch to the lamp, landing almost at the very top. She hung there motionless as the lamp slowly began to fall over. I could read her mind by the way her eyes were bulging from her head and her ears were laying straight back. She was thinking, "Oh sh*t! What have I done?!" I caught both cat and lamp as they made their way to the ground saving them both because Luna would have been in big trouble had she ruined my lamp. I had to carefully extract her tiny claws from the paper shade. She sat there afterwards looking at me as if I had ruined all her fun.

Jaykeb is particularly careful with the little terror. He hasn't managed to avoid her completely though. She barely caught him on the thumb with her tiny claw the other day and the drama that insued was oscar worthy. First there was a lot of screaming for a bandaid. From the racket I thought she had bitten his thumb clear off and was surely sitting in the corner munching on it. Upon inspection, I found a very small hint of blood on his thumb but proceeded to bandage it as if it were the traumatic injury he thought it was. After we tended to his wound he turned his attention back to Luna. "I HATE LUNA!!!! I WISH SHE HAD NEVER COME HERE!!!" This went on for probably 45 minutes. I finally threatened to give her back to Holly and this slowed him down a little but not completely. My child is the king of drama and isn't afraid to show it.

Only 4 more months until we can get her claws removed...please pray for her that she makes it!
