My cat scared the crap out of me! [View all]

I was getting the mail yesterday. I don't know if her head got caught in the door or I accidentally stepped on her tail, but she flew into a rage. She started growling and hissing at me and wouldn't let me in the house for almost an hour. It didn't matter what door I went to, she'd be there. My wife mixed some gabepentyn (sp?) into her food bowl and that seemed to calm her down a little. Then she held her while I snuck in the front door and ran upstairs. She followed me up but kept her distance. Finally, after about 15 minutes she hopped up on my bed and chilled out.

Have you ever had this happen to you?
