Today, I thought I was finally connecting with my new kitten when she was looking at me closely and letting me pet her. The moment was quickly ruined by her sinking a claw into my eyeball. FML

You stared too long and too closely. When kitty stares at you, blink slowly and look away.

As an autistic and a cat guardian, I can say that to some extent you do speak the truth. However, one can have a cat connect with them. It's just gotta be all on the cat's terms. Being up close enough for one's eyeball to be in range when y'all have just met...that wasn't it. Would YOU want a gigantic stranger looming their huge face at you Majora's Mask style? Doubt it.

Never get into a stare off with a cat.

Oh shit. I've been there before too. You're gonna have to watch for recurring corrosiveness. Deep eyeball wounds like that take a LONG time to fully heal.

As if there aren't already enough dangerous creatures residing in Australia.

Your cat stuck it’s litterbox tool in your eye and your posting the same day?

Cats can be jerks when you least expect it
