:shudder:
We had a problem with Bill The Cat - he walked all over kitchen worktops, which I hate; it's unhygienic. But unless we could catch him, you can't stop him and all we had were his paw prints.
Until one day when I'm frying some meat: I've got a hot pan with oil, and I'm chopping the meat up when I catch out of the corner of my eye Bill jumping onto the cooker - and heading for the frying pan. Somehow (and I know not how, I must have started moving before my brain noticed what was happening and caught up) I managed to smack him in the tummy and throw him across the kitchen. One and only time I ever hit him more than a "finger bop" on the nose but there was nothing else I could do to prevent serious injuries.
He was fine - he creeped to me for an hour or so until he was sure I wasn't cross with him - but I felt terrible.

And he never went on the sides again.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
