Only minor injuries. It was a very patient cat.

She was lucky. I acquired "cat scratch disease" some years back when I rescued a stray kitten and took it to the shelter. It punched its little claws into my hand.

The disease is not serious, and apparently treatable, but I had no idea what the problem was at the time, and basically just sat it out with weird inflammations around the claw marks and armpit lymph nodes the size of bowling balls. By the time I figured out I had something, it was already going away. Thanks loads, you rotten kitten. So much for karma.
