It was her own fault. She and Emily were hugging the cat.
Then, Abby decided to get rough. While Ron and I were saying “no!” and “Nice!”, the cat had had enough and without his claws, gave her on goo smack on the cheek. Left no mark except to her pride and ego. 😉
She saw Monsieur outside a bit later and was all excited about seeing him, so no harm done!! 🙂
