my poor cat got attacked

Get a pet rock, they’re pretty hard to get killed.

Men don’t have cats.

I’d bought a crow myself, they are the smartest animal in my opinion.

you know…I honestly took that in consideration

Sorry about your loss, i’ve lost a cat once too when i was a kid, her foot was flattened by a car :frowning:

My street has a bunch of wandering animals that people feed every now and then, including a cat that’s half deaf, you can sneak up behind him and scare it to death, usually he’s either out in the sun, just chilling, or trying to find people that will feed it.
The local house cats like to chase him too. Several times now the house cats would wait for somebody to drop off food so they could eat it before the stray one got back, you’d see him watching from a distance, hiding, waiting…

Plotting.

There’s exceptions - as I mentioned, our cats have been strictly INDOOR cats since kittenhood - they’re about the same age, but from different litters. The only times they had left the house was for vet checks and to get neutered. One is content and actually a little afraid of what’s outside; whereas, the other has gotten out a couple times and shows a LOT of interest in being outside. When he does manage to get out, the only way to get him back inside is to wait till he has to use the litter box :expressionless:

AFAIK 1st-degree murdering another person’s pet is a criminal act in most civilized places. Dunno about jail time, but there’s definitely lawsuits and fines involved.

That mugshot avatar of yours just accentuates the “dogkiller” look you’ve got going on. Fuckin freak.

You can probably report the dog as a vicious pet that is dangerous to the public and the pound will come and put him down.

dont punish the dog because you were too stupid to keep your pets in line

Cats obey if you train them. My cat will sit, roll over and shake hands, like a dog. When I first got him he was pretty persistent about going out too, but I trained him to stop. It just takes dedication and hard work, but that is better than a dead cat.

This. And then there is one less stupid pet in the world.

I agree with reporting the dog but still you kind of had it coming, I have never owned a cat and I only have a tortoise, but whenever I let him outside I keep a close eye on him because we have 2 dogs next door and 3 cats next door from the other house, and a dog has already gotten too close for comfort. Make sure you know when to take your pet out and bring them in, when you own a pet do your research on how to train it, sorry for your loss. I am posting this late at night so I have no idea how accurate I am so excuse me for any stupidity

I would say the stupid pet was the one who wandered aimlessly into the dogs territory.

Did shadi say that? For all we know the dog tore shadi’s fence and got his cat. I’m not saying that that’s the case, shadi hasn’t told us.

That’s pretty flawed logic. The neighbor’s property is the only territory that is the dog’s, but unfortunately the dog doesn’t understand property boundaries and all that human stuff, especially when he sees a cat. If the dog left his owner’s property and attacked shadi’s cat then the owners of the dog and the dog itself are infinitely more at fault than shadi and his cat. But if the cat wandered onto the neighbor’s yard it’s a completely different story. So which was it Shadi?

I’ve had a dog come onto our property through a crack in our huge fence and attack one of out chickens. If the owners weren’t so apologetic and I gave more of a shit about our chickens I would have been pissed as hell. The chicken somehow lived BTW. The dog tore open a fatty gash in it’s back and dragged it about a hundred feet. We gave it some food and some water and put it somewhere separate from the other chickens so it could die peacefully rather than being pecked to death. Now it’s completely healed and can’t even be told apart from the other chickens.

Also, Shadi, go to the pound and adopt an older cat that is accustomed to living inside.

I’m just saying he shouldn’t be trying to get revenge on an animal mindlessly working on instinct.

Someone should write a book about that.

Isn’t it like the classic human proverb of fatherly wisdom that one should not seek revenge on an animal?

If the cat got into the dog’s yard and got himself fucked up, and then Shadi kills the dog personally/ has it impounded, that would be analogous to the following:

Boxing Champ: “I am dangerous.”
Feeble Man: “Please don’t hurt me!”
Man grabs Boxing Champ’s fist and rams himself into it neck-first
Man presses charges

I preface most mentions of pets with stupid.

Not really, because the cat clearly wasn’t intentionally getting himself killed. It’s more like you like to go hiking a lot in the local mountains, but only a small part of those mountains are actually your property. You hike in them anyway and run into some overprotective assholes who shoot and kill you for trespassing.
