Hello all, Have to chime in on this thread.
One afternoon back in 1979 I was chemically stripping the two part paint gone bad off my 1971 Volvo 142E (great car, I wish I still had it). I had just finished applying the goo all over the roof when my big grey Russian Blue male cat landed on the roof to say hello. Immediately his four paws started sliding out from under him and he starting crying from the chemical burn he was experiencing. In a split second I imagined him licking the stuff of his paws and how that would complicate matters. I quickly and forcefully grabbed him by the fur and flesh on his back with a rubber gloved hand and raced to the kitchen sink, put him in it and turned on the water all the while never letting go of him. In the interim he had reached around and bit me in the fleshy part between my thumb and index finger right through the rubber dishwashing glove leaving two vampire like puncture wounds. I had to grin and bear it and not loosen my grip till I had washed all the chemical off. An adrenalin rush to say the least and all turned out OK. I believe he was thankful, in cat fashion, for the cooling sensation on his paws since he allowed me to rub well between his claws with my free hand.
