    I did this the other day and my thumb is fine. I just flushed the wound out and put some Neosporin on it. You should be OK... I think the only risk would be infection.

    No need to worry. We've all done it - probably more than once! ;)

    I've done that too. I never worry about it - just wash my hands with hot water and good soap.

    Don't worry unless you start having hairballs, and wanting to use the litterbox. Lol
