    Gatakitty gave me a blue ribbon!

    Now, to repeat the earlier post for my quiz:

    "[Book character] said, 'If you [committed this particular offense against the particular cat in the story], he'd sit and stare at a point between your eyes until you began to feel dizzy. Soon there would be a dull ache under your left shoulder blade, then a stabbing abdominal pain. Your feet would get numb, and you'd find it hard to breathe. Then your blood would start to itch. Do you know what it feels like to have itching blood?'
    "[Housekeeper] patted her friend's hand. 'He's kidding, dear. He's always kidding.' "

    Any guesses as to the words that belong inside the brackets?

Soon there would be a dull ache under your left shoulder blade, then a stabbing abdominal pain. Your feet would get numb, and you'd find it hard to breathe. Then your blood would start to itch. Do you know what it feels like to have itching blood?"
