Cat Scratch Deception

The joke plays on the common idea of cats scratching people. The twist is that the person admits they are actually the one causing the scratches. This unexpected turn makes light of a dark subject by using a self-deprecating tone.

• Scratch
• Cat
• Self Harm
• Animal
• Arms
• Skin

• Somebody asked me, "What's that on your arm?" I just said, "My cats got OCD."
• Does your cat scratch you? Yeah, I need [to] give him payback, but now he won't respond.
• I asked my now ex-boyfriend why he’s scared of my cat. He said it was because of the scratches on my arm. I told him that my cat doesn’t scratch, but he didn’t believe me. He realised what I meant when he noticed I kept hiding my wrist from everyone else. (Kinda based on the fact that my ex is indeed scared of cats, and he has been scared of my cat, so yeah 😂)
• Would a depressed person enjoy a cat scratch? After all, it's a free slice.
