Alien micro-organisms? My instinct is hoax, but until that is shown I'm going to believe real aliens.

You know, Sean, even when they fluff up their fur they are quite a bit smaller than you.
Not Ozzie.
This is where having more than one cat comes in handy.
Not Ozzie and Perkins the cat. Whenever PtC thinks Ozzie is in trouble/flipping out, he'll take the opportunity to attack him, which can lead to Ozzie being hurt, which will lead to his flip outs lasting for days.
Timelies,
All these freaked-out cat attack stories are giving me the wiggins. My parents have had owned over half-a-dozen cats in my life and none of them have ever attacked anyone. Playful pouncing, yes, but no intentional drawing of blood outside of the things cats normally scratch people over (bathing, cleaning ears, trying to clip claws, etc)
Can it be 6pm yet? Ugh. I just want to go home. One of our major systems have been having printing problems all week and I'm so sick of dealing with it. They're supposed to be upgrading the servers to fix the problem tonight.

Pretty interesting, but I'm pretty skeptical about Popular Science
My cats seem so mellow compared with everyone elses. When they freak out the only thing that gets hurt is upholstery.
My cat has hurt me twice, both times by being frightened by a loud noise outside while sitting in my lap. In an effort to flee, she's dug her claws in to propel herself off my lap.
I think I might have alien microorganisms living in my foot!
My previous cats have never freaked out like the incident I just had-- they were pretty mellow, like Sue's, and loved the cardboard scrather thing that I couldn't get this cat to touch!
Prompted by this conversation, I had to revisit mycathatesyou.com. Hehe. [link]
Amarna's normally pretty laid back. She only gets nippy occasionally, and she really only goes for my forearm when that happens. She goes on her little tears around the place usually around midnight, but that's part of her daily routine.
But, she's very sweet when she just wants to lay on top of me and be petted; she starts by jumping on my stomach, meowing down into my face, kneading my stomach/boobs/arm until she's ready to lay down, and then positioning herself so that her head is within easy reach of my hand.
