When I was kid we had a stray cat and a kiddie pool. That's how I found out cats don't like water. In my youthful ignorance I attempted to toss the cat into the kiddie pool. For a split second frozen in time which seemed to last an eternity, the cat was suspended upside down in mid-air by its claws sunk deep into my flesh. It clawed it's way up my arm, over my shoulder, and down my back like a mountaineer climbing a sheer ice face with a couple ice axes and a pair of crampons Lesson learned.
