Granny's gone and done it again

It's good that you didn't heat up the stove for your kitty. It wasn't a good, easy, or inexpensive experience for anyone, two or four-legged. Poor Clancy blistered his front paws pretty badly and 3rd-degree scorched the back ones. The vet said it was because he used the back ones to launch himself off the hot surface. He was SO good about treatment. We couldn't keep bandages on his feet and we weren't supposed to use salve. He would actually lay in our laps while we held frozen pads to his paws. Clancy had to stay inside until the tissue sloughed and healed. We kept him on cool, tiled surfaces and used folded newspapers in his litter box for almost two months. He was a house/farm cat whose main goal in life was to make life miserable for the barn swallows, so he was NOT a happy kitty during his convalescence. Still, he was an awesome boy, even before his misadventure. I do love me a ginger kitty!
I wan't going to leave the stove burners on. Just the oven on warm. It wouldn't have burned her.
