I had cat scratch disease last year, and do not recommend it. Very painful and uncomfortable. If a cat bites or scratches you hard enough to break skin, clean and disinfect immediately. If you feel ill after a couple of weeks to a month, test yourself and kitty for Bartonella Henselae. If positive, prepare for three months to a year of misery.

“Omg, wait, let go! Oh… That’s actually really nice and warm, purrrrrrr…”

Maybe at least pour it in a different container? Edges on those things are sharp.
