Scalped

A bit of a misnomer, but mowing under a catalpa tree he caught his head on a low-hanging branch. Even wearing a hat didn't help;  rip... The blood flowed and he screamed for my help. Now I know 1. how thin is the covering on the brain and 2. how a savage could take a scalp. Most of the bleeding comes  from a spot previously lasered for a pre-cancerous wart. Why that exact spot? Onward with the mowing 'til dark. Adventures in retirement never cease. 

One welcomed to cease for me would be the pathological hatred one cat holds for another in our household. The kitten oblivious to rejection and addicted to play, just won't learn to leave the old grouch alone!  My incipient insanity notwithstanding.
