I would fall down the stairs and then apologize and give the cat treats because I hurt it.

I would have stepped on it and have my lower leg shredded and gained an enemy for life inside my own house.

I probably would have tumbled down the stairs too ... broken bones, concussion, bruises, scrapes ... while being shredded and still end up with a lifelong enemy.

An accurate assessment of events.

At least it wouldn't be a long life to suffer the enemy

They're testing you. If you can't spot a threat, you failed as a hunter.

Getting to snack on your still-warm corpse is just a side benefit

Dangerous for the cat, for sure.

My cats lie in the middle of the hallway, swishing their tails, and then act offended when they inevitably get their tail pinched.

Fucking mimics are everywhere

I've got three cats. You just learn to look down everywhere you go and never walk backwards.

Wait, waitwaitwaitwait. You're telling me I'd have to turn around before I start walking?

This stair ain't big enough for the both of us

My cat likes to sit to the side at the top of the steps and then hook my pants with his claws on my way down

Dangerous for the assassin not so much for the victim

Walking down the stairs be like: now that's a lot of damage.
