like a cat who has just undergone the forcible removal of a tick from a very sensitive sphincter area.

:dubious: ☹ :eek: :eek:  
Anyone else have a “hell hath no fury” moment?

- In the interests of fighting ignorance, I will add the disclaimer that the quote started out as “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned/ Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.” by William Congreve in _The Mourning Bride_, circa 1697.

Hell hath no fury like a woman who just got a bad haircut.

This from my sweetie a couple of weeks ago, when he refused to comment on my new haircut 'cause he knew I hated it so damn much. 😛 He swears up and down that childbirth and divorce are easier to deal with than a woman who got her hair cut too short. \*

\*of course, he means childbirth from the male point of view; the jury is out on how women feel about it. :p:p

Two days ago I had to remove a tick from my Anatolian Shepards’ sheath. He’s still looking at me funny.

Hell hath no fury like a woman’s scorn for Sega.

Sorry, had to. Carry on.

Hell hath no fury like a pregnant woman whose much anticipated food was prepared incorrectly. I am ashamed to admit it but it makes me snap === BAD === and then of course, cry because it “just won’t taste the same” and cry even more because somewhere in my mind is a sane woman who KNOWS she is acting like a hormonal psychopath but can’t stop the outbursts.

I snapped at my cancer-ridden mother in fact the other day for helping me fix lunch but making it a different way than she did when I was a child, thus, making it “wrong”. I cried and apologized so much but I couldn’t stop the crazy from escaping. ☹

There was also the guacamole soft taco “incident” of 2007 when I was pregnant with my DD.:smack:

I know for a FACT that my easy going older male cat does NOT like getting a catheter inserted into his urethra. I haven’t done it myself, but he’s had a couple of UTIs, and the vet wants a urine sample if at all possible. Shadow, who is usually so mellow that we’ve searched the house for his stash of 'nip or hash, regards his penis as private property, and he doesn’t want anyone groping him there. Nor does he want anything inserted there. And pills are RIGHT out. Fortunately, the vet is willing to give him a shot instead of pills.

I had to remove a bur from my long haired cat. The said bur was rubbing against his testicles.
