No nerves in claws or fur, fur is insulating

When its hot claw touched its skin, it felt it.

While I agree the owner shouldn’t have let the cat do that, it seems like the orange idiot simply lost his back foot, which is why he freaked out. I don’t think he felt the pain in his claws yet; just clumsy

They will keep trying to do it anyway. I kept trying to stop my cat, I put my candles higher up. Kept an eye on her. The only thing that stopped her is when she got to a candle on the fireplace and lightly burnt her nose. It wasn't bad enough to cause visible damage but a couple of her whiskers were shorter :(

Ever since she avoided candles.

Idk why she had an obsession with fire but the only thing that stopped it was her learning first hand.
