Reply to comment by skolnaja in The fact that Cats are far more dangerous than Wolf Spiders, yet we love them far more and are far less afraid of them, says a lot about how humans value physical appearance in creatures by Run_MCID37

Actually, you need to be very careful with this. Cat scratch fever is a real phenomenon. Their claws have been in their litter box.

And any animal bite (including human) that isn't super shallow should be treated be medical professionals. You can get a very serious infection shockingly quickly from a deep puncture wound. It's like a dental abscess; it's one of those things you should not fuck around with.
