The threat of people getting injured in their day to day work isn't an amusing matter...   >:(

At least if it's biting off Brian's hand it's not shitting in my back yard.

Quite some edit there asterix.

True, but the cat's face is.

Cat bites to the hand can be NASTY and no hard-working postie deserves them.

Well I have a 4 inch scar on the palm of my hand given me by a rescue cat about 10 years ago.  Scarred for life!

He'd had a hard upbringing, not being fed properly and treated like a toy, and would be good as gold for a while and then suddenly he'd get the claws out.  He'd also take a finger in between his jaws but fortunately never bit.  After we had him for a year or so he calmed down totally but hated being left alone in the house for more than a day.  There'd be no damage until we got back and then he would get onto shelves right in front of us and knock stuff onto the floor.  A highly intelligent cat, he was.
