Cat slowly
edges
towards you and you begin backing away. Cat
pounces,
you
dodge
and Cat runs into the table leg. You hear a
clatter
of plates on the table above you. Spying the edge of the table cloth, you jump. Grabbing the bottom you start to climb when Cat
lunges
at you again. However, Cat gets her claws caught in the table cloth and with a mighty jerk, pulls it down. Another clatter on top of the table and suddenly the tablecloth is falling faster and faster, and plates are falling towards you. You and Cat dodge away and when you land, you manage to land on a piece of cheese! Then Cat
springs
to make her final attack.
What do you do?
