- Shayna Jacobs and Rocco Parascando­la

THE CLAWS ARE back out.

For the second time this year, Jocelyn (Catwoman) Wildenstei­n and her boyfriend Lloyd Klein were charged with assaulting each other during an argument, police sources said Monday.

Wildenstei­n, the 77-year-old socialite who has spent millions in facial reconstruc­tion to appear cat-like, and Klein, 50, were each busted on misdemeano­r assault charges when police showed up at their apartment inside Trump World Tower, on First Ave. near the United Nations, at 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

The couple fought over a dinner plate that had overheated and exploded in the oven earlier, police said. Wildenstei­n (photo) told cops Klein shoved her to the ground, bruising her neck and arms, sources said. Klein told police she scratched his forehead.

Wildenstei­n was treated at Bellevue Hospital and Klein went to New York-Presbyteri­an Hospital Weill Cornell. They were both released without bail, with an order of protection issued against each of them.
