Thanks! Catnip was a last minute addition, I was considering something like pepper spray instead when I crashed into the problem that it might affect the enemy as well. And then who can resist a cat on catnip? :D

I was tempted to allow the finger to get somewhere, but I suspect any unauthorised delvings might have sparked off an automatic disembowling, which is always awkward and ruins clothing. Mind you, there's lots of possibility in future..

Can't really say too much on the fights, but I'm glad it all worked ok! There's definitely some more violent fights coming up, but then with these boys I guess that's something that always happens... O.o
