Angelo, my cat...the best cat in the world, has left all marked up. He doesn't have front claws, but he does have back claws. Being that I'm his sole companion (and him mine by the way) he likes to cling to me, to sit on my lap, and to climb up my chest and put his head and front paws over my shoulder. All of this leads to him digging his rear claws into me.

So I have long scratches on my legs, arms, and chest. A lot of them are 3 or 4 inches, from times when he tried jumping up on me but didn't get good footing and slid down whatever part of my body he was clinging to. I suppose its his way of telling me I need to clip his nails (I hate doing that).
