A friend in HS that had a Mountain Lion cub....I'm guessing it came from Mexico. It was about Jack Russell terrier size but had paws that were bigger than my full grown Great Dane's. If it dug those claws into the carpet you could not budge it. It was cute and playful but then it was a baby. He didn't keep it until it was full grown. Back then I hat a house cat named George. He was a mean old cuss and hated most everyone, but mean as he was, him scratching you was somewhere between being funny and irritating.BobCat wrote:True! Related, but different critters.
But if those housecats hadn't been so selfish (they wouldn't be cats...) - they could have take out those intruders handily! The noticed them real early and could easily have gotten underfoot, tripped them, and used their claws to make them sorry they ever broke into the house. Only problem - acting like guard dogs is not in their job description.
Still, I think it was a win for the lady of the house. She ran off the bad guys and didn't have to tangle with the cops (that we know of) - which she probably would have, if her shots had connected.

House Cat, Bob Cat, different animals.BobCat wrote:Cats have fangs and claws. We usually keep our claws retracted, but they come out instantly when needed.
As far as more range time / happier ending - the good guys are safe, the bad guys ran, nobody got dead and nobody got arrested.
Getting thrown in jail for shooting someone - even if later found not-guilty and released - is to be avoided if possible.
I think the outcome was real satisfactory; only better ending would be the cops grabbed the bad guys and threw them in jail.

Re: A woman defends her castle - multiple inside videos
Cats. 
The do make tasty tacos though (just kidding, I love animals, just prefer dogs to cats). My 5 dogs would have been barking loud enough to wake the dead. Then again, I understand in SA the perps often poison your dogs. At first I thought they were old school with those revolvers. I like revolvers for carry at times but at home at night it's going to be a Glock or CZ, or something of that nature...if not a rifle or shotgun. But I've read that a revolver is about the only handgun you can legally own in SA? I read an article awhile back about a Minister using a snubbie to defend his congregation against attackers with AKs.
