Cat SAVES Boy From Dog Attack

Dog saves girls from cat. Too bad there is no video of the showdown but that puma cuts the dogo's face up pretty good. And just to think, where I live a dogo argentino is part of the pitbull ban and the asshole dog on the ops video is perfectly legal.

Pretty sure if you sic a dog on someone it gets treated like assault with a deadly weapon. And the cat doesn't run under the car, he makes a second run at the dog before coming back to seemingly check on the boy. On youtube the 48 second video is the one by the homeowner with several camera angles. It's not funny really to tie or attach things to animals for fun, but when I was a kid a cat of ours crawled under a bed and came out with a strip of paper somehow taped to it's tail and ran around like something was chasing it. Hilarious at the time.

Many years ago we were setting up a birthday party for my youngest sister , table full of food , decorations and lots of balloons , she loosely tied one to the sleeping cats tail for a laugh.
Cat woke up and went completely mental , food everywhere , broken ornaments , attacked and killed every balloon , party wrecked in 30 seconds flat.

Despite the bang it went for every balloon it saw after that , I don't think it was harmed or traumatised apart from a deep and lasting hatred of balloons , she would happily sit there and pop them as fast as you could blow them up.

Would have been a classic youtube clip but 30 years too soon.

So wonderful and humanitarian of that neighbor :-0 A judge would have ordered the dog to be put down anyway. He should also pay all the hospital bills, buy the kid a new bike, pay for all the psych visits the kid might need to overcome trauma, and all the catnip that cat could possibly ever want, and still be fined. And whatever else anybody could dream up. Or even better. Sue his dumb-ass off and give his house to the kid. It is entirely his fault.

The original dangerous dogs act was a bit of a knee jerk reaction listing only certain breeds but they are sorting it out now in the UK.






Anything like this in the USA ?

I don't think so, I'm pretty sure it varies state to state. They are starting to come around to punishing the owners more though. I hope if they ever do pass a federal law they call it the Dangerous owners act, because it's really the owners that are being dangerous. If well cared for and well trained pit bulls and other dogs usually viewed as dangerous can be as nice and as gentle as can be. Dogs were bred to please their owners and they are very good at picking up cues from their owners to know how to please them. So for this dog to attack someone like that without provocation the owner must have given the dog reason to believe that's what the owner expects the dog to do.

i owned a dog that bit my nephew outa nowhere like that. put him down same day! wasn't as vicious as that one either. recently broke up a bad fight between my son's pit bull and my newl acquired rescue dog. not a hint of aggression towards me while physically being in the middle of em to break em up! they r keepers! that dog gotta go!
 
I lived with cats all my life, and when I was a kid, a large shepherd-mix used to run loose in the neighborhood. One day he came over to my driveway and without warning, started attacking my puppy. Immediately; out from the garage, my cat ran and she jumped on that dog's face, latching on to him like an Alien movie. I never saw how fast a dog could run backwards with a cat attached to it's face, she must have held on to him for at least 10 feet before she let go, and the shepherd took off running.

In the aftermath, my puppy needed stitches from the neck to the shoulder. He was so traumatized, it took me weeks to take him outside for walks. Even our cat needed a few stitches on one of her legs after the scuffle. She saved his life, and they were best buddies until she passed away six years later.

As for the loose shepherd; he still roamed the neighborhood, but he NEVER walked on our side of the street again, ever.

If you thought that cat was badass...

You ought to see the PEOPLE in Bakersfield.


I barely escaped with my life. It's that kind of town.
