Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Norma went for my jugular yesterday morning.She was sleeping under the sheets right next to me as she likes to do. She heard something downstairs so she crawled out from the covers and straddled herself on my shoulder. When she heard the noise again she hurdled herself toward the stairs. Her hind claw launched from my neck leaving a deep scratch. I screamed. Thing was I knew it could happen but I was too slow and sleepy to lift her forward (which might have caused her to launch herself anyway).
