Here’s a nice little Christmas event that didn’t go exactly as planned. During a Santa Paws photo shoot at a PetsMart store in New Jersey, a very large cat named Benny, who was sitting on Santa’s lap, became freaked out by nearby dogs (speaking in their thunderous, horrible tongue, no doubt), and BIT SANTA ON THE WRIST AND HAND!
Fortunately for everyone involved, primarily Santa and Benny, everything seems to be working out okay. Benny’s owner provided assurances that Benny has had all his vaccines and Santa said that he did not want anything to happen to Benny. However, unless Benny’s owner produces his vaccination records, Santa will have to undergo a series of rabies shots. Ouchie! Let’s hope that doesn’t have to happen.
So, fellow cat, the moral of this story is that if your human takes you to have your photo taken with Santa, biting or scratching ‘ole St. Nick is probably not the best way to show him that you’ve been a good little girl or boy. And Benny, I probably wouldn’t count on Santa coming through with that new mechanized litter box you want for Christmas this year.

Ohh Geeze.. I do not think that even I would like to be in a room full of all other animals then be handled by a big fat hairy man in jammies!
And i LOVE people!
What were poor Benny's parents thinking... :(
V-V
I really enjoyed all the interesting information and things plus all the really cute photos that I saw and am going to definately refer this information to others because I am a huge cat lover. Thank you so much!
What a stupid idea to take the poor cat for a shot on Santa's lap ! I would scratch and bite too !
Poor Benny! Poor Santa! I would be far too scairt to go visit the real Santa at PetSmart. I will just look at him when he comes to my house to deliver presents.
Plus, Mommy and Daddy will probably get a lump of coal in their stockings.
OUCH! I wonder if Santa is considering another line of work?
Benny surely you will get a coal!!
