Spoons are not Toys

As I was rigging up some of my rods today for the trip tomorrow morning, the calico cat wanted to play. Now this isn’t unusual because she is the more social of the two out in the barn. Bad thing is, she wanted to play with my lures.
I had attached the spoon to the line first, and then the swivel, then while tying the swivel to the main line she pounced. This time the toy at the end of the string bit back. It must have been bouncing around a bit, because she swatted at it with her paw. Luckily the treble hook did not get driven in far and once I got a hold of her head, I was quickly able to remove the hook.
She was more stunned than hurt, and kept looking at it funny before commencing to give it bath. It was just something that I had never concerned myself with, or even thought could happen. Just something to keep in mind, and be aware of those lil’ buggers around you.
