Cat

The nickname given to self-harm. Many of those who have an addiction/feel the need to harm themselves regularly describe the need to self-harm as a demon telling them so. This demon is often called Cat.

The nickname Cat has two origins:
1) "Cat" sounds like "Cut"
2) A common excuse for the scars on wrists/thighs/other body parts is "the cat did it"

I have a feeling Cat will visit me tonight
