Cat. There is a bit of story here. See below.
Almost home from work tonight and a cat ran across the street in front of my car. Remembering that someone in the neighborhood is looking for a lost cat, I stopped to see if I could get a better look. I didn’t remember the photo well enough to be sure, but I did recall it was a declawed house at named “Lulu”. I’m allergic to cats, but I figured it would be worth it if I could get a pet back to it’s owner. I started calling to out as I slowly approached, being careful not to spook it. I got within about 8 feet, when the cat got up and trotted right to me!
“Wonderful”, I thought as I reached out with my hand to try to make friends. The cat responded by reaching out with a very much not-declawed paw, drawing a trace of blood. DEFINITELY not Lulu.
Did I mention I am VERY allergic to cats? The antihistamines I took are kicking in, but I still have a welt that really itches, and dammit, now my eyes itch too.
