Don't get me wrong, I love my cat, but if he decided to go apeshit and attack me, a loved one, or someone else, I wouldn't hesitate to wring his neck. Humans come first, and I think anyone who values an animal's life more than a human's is a moron.
Cat Tax
Seeing as Dr. Watson is the kindest cat in the world, I don't think he has much to worry about.

On the other hand if somebody attacks my cat, Id fuck them up right then
jorynagel
I used to have a cow that would paw at the ground and get ready to charge every time I tried to feed it so I carried a heavy stick with me 1
jorynagel
Just in case he actually charged and someone told me it was animal abuse. Guess I should have been trampled.
iamthugnasty
My issue is that some people would say a barking German Shepherd or pit bull is vicious simply because of the breed.
iamthugnasty
If a dog actually attacks you then kill it. If you kill a dog because you THINK it will attack you, you're a terrible person.

It goes the same for people

Since humans are basically animals, yes.
wotemer
values a human life over a pets... because pet cats are known for their ability to kill their human prey. happens daily. feeds them for days
gdubh
Yeah. I think...I think this is probably a good idea. And one shared by the majority, if not all, people. So -1 for poor application.
ItsClemFandangoStevenCanYouHearMe
you would be surprised how many people seem to disagree with this idea.
Microwavedturtle
Does this go for people too? Cos i feel like it should go for people too.
toropazzoide
It does, humans are basically animals, so you can defend yourself from one xD
Cerinna
I agree. This in light of an event here in the Netherlands where a woman shot their two dogs when they attacked her husband.
2DollarBillsAreEvil
My neighbor's boxer jumped the fence and clamped down on my calf. I punched that fucker right in the nose. Fucking hate untrained dog owners
LunarRhythm
You can fend off the animal without killing it. Like if some tiny ass cat attacks your mate, killing it would be excessive. All I'm saying.
iconior
ya, OP is totally a faggot
catsaregroundowls
But if it is a huge dog that has a huge amount of firepower and attacks unprovoked....
Smayds
Why are we giving guns to dogs?! This has to stop!
LunarRhythm
That I can fully understand, but OP made it sound like he'd just kill any animal that tries to hurt him which is just totally unnecessary.
catsaregroundowls
1/2 Sure, but he premised it in a way that made it seem like he has been attacked about his views, used the meme right
catsaregroundowls
2/2 quite frankly didn't provide enough details to leap to "sociopathy".
LunarRhythm
neck. Sounds like he's implying he'd kill his cat which is, again, totally excessive. 2/2
LunarRhythm
He didn't, so I'm not assuming that much, but he blatantly said if his cat lashed out at him or a mate, he wouldn't hesitate to ring its 1/2
catsaregroundowls
OMG I am sorry. IMGUR can be confusing with opening comment threads. Someone else was saying he was a violent psychopath.
catsaregroundowls
1/2 I just was like, k the guy is probably on the defense. No way his cat could ACTUALLY lead to neck ringing but I wouldn't mind kicking a
catsaregroundowls
I opened your reply instead. But yeah like even mean animals deserve humane deaths.
toropazzoide
I think some humans' life come first, not always. If a dog is eating a pedophile alive, I'll bring a cookie for the dog.
scrotumflee
If a dog attacks my dog I will kick it hard. Against the head or the rib cage. Been there, done that.
benrahMonster
Dude look at ur animal...it's a house cat, if it went "ape-shit" on you or someone else you just pick it up and remove it from the situation
IcantFindAusernameThatIsNotTaken
Agreed
WhoYouGonnaCallGhostNappa
Speaking as someone who was attacked by a pet and hospitalized as an infant, fuck you
SPICYDlCKMlLK
Was that pet a 5lbs house cat?
StandBackSomeonesOffened
Oh ffs if it was a cat u still don’t have to kill it. A fucking gerbil could smother an infant you don’t chuck it into a wall for crawling-
StandBackSomeonesOffened
In the crib
Corrodias
It is unclear to me why you think it's so easy simply to pick up a furious animal with natural weapons. You've never seen an animal fight?
Corrodias
Judging by some of the comments on this post, I'm starting to think a lot of people on Imgur have never seen an actual animal attack...
demosthenes89
I have. Unless a cat is rabid, or you're locked in a box together, you kick it once and it will run away.
WhoYouGonnaCallGhostNappa
It's one thing if you are an adult, and quite another if you are an infant or young child
demosthenes89
I mean, I guess if you had a 3lb premie. So an adult intervenes and kicks the cat. It's not going to fight you in a quest to eat your baby.
Corrodias
I think rabies is probably the only possible cause of OP's hypothetical combat scenario, so, yeah.
KittyTrousers
Cats its fairly easy to "scruff" them and move them. My very large, young cat still bites/scratches pretty bad (working on that) so I (1/)
KittyTrousers
scruff him behind his neck to get him to stop biting and then move him. You'll get a few scratches in the process, but its possible (2/2)
Corrodias
1) I don't disagree. But I don't think "warning bites" are the hypothetical scenario OP is talking about. Cats were a bad example not
Corrodias
2) because they can't inflict damage but because they typically don't *want* to. You shouldn't try that technique with a rabid cat.

Someone's dog come running up to me and snarling at my kid. Punched it in the skull and knocked it out. Didn't feel bad at all. #getaleash

I had a dog attack me and had to kill it. Neighbor would not keep it on his property. Had to stab it through the neck and shoot it
lowfatheals
I agree but you executed this information really poorly and came off with this crazy sense of entitlement over other animals.
ThatsPermanent
I think most people in the world would agree that humans ARE entitled over other animals. Disagreeing with that is a niche, recent concept?
Corrodias
Interesting. Judging by the way the points are going, it seems that PETA found this post. (I'm half joking)

Depends. If an animal attacks me I'll defend myself. If someone goes to where an animal is and gets attacked...not the animal's fault.

It is still the animals fault, but some of the blame is shared with the human for being an idiot

ImAnExpertInBirdLaw

Corrodias
The flippant way you treat this suggests that it's playing, and either you don't know what an actual attack is like, or you're exaggerating.
KrystenRittereyerollingatshitposters
Children please
lilmole
i think it's more flippant because the average house cat maxes out at 15 lbs. if you're scared of something and you're 100+ lbs heavier 1/
lilmole
/2 you probably shouldn't own a pet.
Corrodias
Have you ever seen a knife? They're wonderfully handy tools and weigh less than a pound, but they can be dangerous if used in an attack.
lilmole
yes, a knife and a cat. the same exact thing.
Corrodias
If people didn't keep pets that had any potential to do damage, they certainly wouldn't keep dogs. Some dogs even *do* hurt people.
CuteAnimalsForSadSister
Just had a lady's boxer mauled to death a couple neighborhoods over by 2 pits. I always carry a weapon while taking a walk for that reason.
benrahMonster
The issue isn't the animals it's the owners... carry a gun... but shoot the owners...dogs are just animals till humans make them bad or good
RenamedUser
Well I'd shoot the dog that was about to attack me, and chew the owners out. But I get what you're saying.
YeahICanHearYouClemFandango
Oh damn... that's terrible. Sorry to hear about the boxer. They're lovely dogs.
NinjaNunDevil
I remember living in an area where dog fighting was common and the pits would get out all the time. They tore apart our cat in the backyard
NinjaNunDevil
I was going to add a frowny face at the end of that sentence but I ran out of characters so :(
Anthraxwastaken
Dude it's a house cat, coke on, you almost seem like you're wishing for a situation that allows you to kill something just because you /1

Want to kill something, like, I agree in theory, but you honestly come off as a psychopath with a superiority complex over a fucking cat /2

2/2 I was a vet tech and had to help vets cut off unvxnated dog's heads because they bit someone, to test for rabies.
StandBackSomeonesOffened
Cut off? Tf there’s easier ways to euthanize there dexter.
Anthraxwastaken
I guess I didn't clarify, but, I agree with the idea of what he's saying, more or less, it's just the way he worded it.
unicorniodechicle
I don't think you need to kill your cat, OP. It's hardly going to be able to fatally wound a human.
PumpkinMasher
My brother was outside talking to our neighbor and a cat ran up and jumped him. It was on him for just seconds before the neighbor grabbed..
PumpkinMasher
the cat and broke it's neck. My brother had a prolonged hospital stay, with multiple lacerations clear to the bone. I think when cats...

We had a cat that was a total jerk and attacked us when he felt like it. My brother has a 4in scar on his arm. We had that cat 17years. <3

OP is just trying to be edgy
chiefwill
Cats have been known to attack infants
CarlosOfNightvale
Though think about this: a cat might be able to kill you but what about people with children? I know people with terrible scars from that.
catsaregroundowls
2/2 why own it. Same reason serial killers get executed.
RoyFuckingMustang
I've never met a domesticated animal that attacked without provocation. If it is "vicious" it's prolly because some human was a shitbag.
catsaregroundowls
1/2 Cats can carry diseases in their mouths that can make wounds septic. I wouldn't kill one for biting but it it was just vicious,
CarlosOfNightvale
(that being cats attacking them as children)
CarlosOfNightvale
Regardless, don't animal bites usually have a bad chance of getting effective? I realize OP meant the cat as an example.
catsaregroundowls
Infected, and yes. Because they lick poop from their butt, ect.
mormacil
Cat bites have an unusual high chance of cat fever. If you feel seriously ill after a cat bite go to the hospital.
Anthraxwastaken
Yeah, cat bites in particular, however killing your cat isn't going to stop an infection.

Sadly a few years ago my buddy had a pit that he rescued. Dog was really sweet but I came over one day not knowing he wasn't home.

The rest didn't post together damn. Basically I had to stab the dog. Dog lived but I don't trust him.

News for you: that dog wasn't "really sweet".
TheTreesAreTalking
He was at first.
BurtTurglar
Shit. I wouldn't trust anything I stabbed and didn't die either. Sorry that happened. What happened with the homeowner?
TheTreesAreTalking
Well he's a good buddy. I called him once I got the dog under control, he was understanding thankfully, didn't send me the vet bill lol
TheTreesAreTalking
He still has the dog, names Budge. We have an understanding but it's a shaky relationship.
chiefrunswithscissors
Pretty sure you wouldn't need to kill a house cat that's attacking you.
Corrodias
I mean, technically, you don't *need* to do anything; you can just lie down and starve at any time. There are different kinds of "need".
Communistdoggo
You probably would not know it was a house cat if it started attacking you. I wouldn't take the chance on getting rabies from a feral cat

would the cat lock the bathroom door from outside?

no she was terrified to leave because the cat would attack her viciously, leaving deep bloody tears in her flesh. The cat was not right.

Would guess it would be like with a dog. Attack humans, get put down
Confettigecko
Actually they can cut pretty deep. It's extremely possible to have an artery punctured by a cat attack. Also they can give nasty infections.

your house at mr. fluffles has a 99.99% chance of never being able to kill you.

Corrodias
It's technically possible, but it'd be an accident. The claws aren't long enough, and they go for the eyes anyway. They don't bite that way.
PumpkinMasher
My brother was attacked by a cat, neighbor was nearby and killed the cat. It did an amazing amount of damage to him. Cut clear to the bone.
lilmole
exactly. watson up there has a lower likelihood of killing you than most things in your house. this post was fuckin weird
Corrodias
Well, *killing* you, yes. If it had a desire (rabies or something) then it could inflict serious damage, if not lethal. Cat is bad example.
desertbear87
Cat scratches can actually kill you. Or at least make you incredibly I'll and in need of an ER stay. Just saying
