I have to take my own bp at home 2x's a day (obv. morning and night).
I sit on the toilet and put my arm across the counter. A couple days ago, kitty jumps up while I'm doing this and rubs across my fingers a few times. I didn't want to move, so I didn't pet him. He got annoyed and bit me. My reading: 119/110
redid it and got 116/74. Apparently a cat bite will skew results.

Cats are supposed to be able to lower your blood pressure....(studies show).....mind you... yes when the cat is being a loving pet, but what about when they are being annoying like only cat lovers know to be true......
