[B Calm]

3. Attacking a horse, wow!

[maddiemom]

17. Well, cats ARE predator animals and horses are prey animals! Seriously, around

most stables some of the horses and some of the "barn cats" get very attached. One "Mama" was determined to give birth in our horse's feed box.

33. I think the cat just wanted to go for a ride

We used to have a barn cat that liked riding on the saddle with the riding instructor that was teaching out of our barn. Sometimes during the lesson when the instructor was on her horse next to a fence directing a student, Smoky the cat would climb up a fence post and jump onto the back of her saddle. The horses barely noticed since he was not directly on their backs.

One day I was weaning some of our foals and hanging out at the barn to keep them company. Smoky came over to see what was going on and jumped up on the stall wall to take a look inside. The two weanlings in the stall were dozing and one was standing up against the front of the stall.

Smoky, with his love of riding, hopped onto the colt's back waking him up. Total pandemonium ensured. The colt Smoky was on bolted, bumping into the other colt. Both were freaking out, running in circles and bucking. Smoky, with nothing to hang onto, was thrown to the floor and was running around trying to get out of the stall without being trampled.

I was outside trying to figure out how to get the cat out without letting the colts loose. Fortunately, Smoky jumped to the front of the stall, over the wall and took off for safer places. The colts calmed quickly and were not injured. I was the only one who remained panicked and freaked out.

For some reason Smoky never jumped on a horse's back again even when a rider with a saddled horse invited him aboard.

9. Stealth attack

Bears have poor eyesight. Cat got lucky.

[Mac1949]

50. Actually, it surprising how many kitties have aggressively protected

their territory from bears. Just search "cat chases bear" on youtube! I don't know what the reason is, but it has to be something more than luck.

8. Black demonic eyes, wiggling butt?

Shit's about to get real.

I know the horror well.

[NJCher]

14. Attacking the printer...

my cat always attacked the printer.

[Sophiegirl]

18. As an aside...

I'm rooting for your boys against the Birds. Since my Nats had a post ASB nuclear meltdown. I hate the Cards.

[murielm99]

21. Cubs fans, like me, have always hated the Cards.

I am going to the game Monday. I am so excited!

[Sophiegirl]

23. I know.

have a great time!!!!

[murielm99]

34. I am going to a political dinner tonight,

so I will miss most of tonight's game.

I will be texting my son a few times during the after-dinner blather.

Usually, I enjoy this group and I like these things, or I would not participate in them. The local and state politicians need our support, time and money.

My son and his wife went to the Pittsburgh game. They drove, from Chicago to Pittsburgh and back. I raised a diehard!

[shenmue]

15. Thank u

I needed a smile.

[dmr]

16. Oh, boy, what fun!

Thanks, I needed a good chuckle that puts a smile on my face.

I just love kitties.

[Blue_Tires]

19. That's why this will continue to be a dog's world

[Punkingal]

20. Wonderful!

Some of those cats can really punch...poor doggies are just defenseless!

[lunatica]

24. Cats have a real advantage over all other species

All those sharp things all being used at the same time!!

[GoCubsGo]

25. I am a horrible person.

The clip of the black kitty popping out of the bushes and pouncing on the toddler has been out for at least 10 years. It still cracks me up in a big way every time I see it.

[AlbertCat]

30. Love it too

When I was in elementary school, our neighbors had this big grey cat. My mother gardened continuously. My sister and I would, like, be on the screen porch and from the yard we'd hear my mom: "God Damn It!". The cat continually leaped out of shrubs at her while she was fiddling in the beds.

Like 10 minutes later: "God Damn it!!!!!"

We laughed.

Happened all the time.

27. I have had 4 dogs and my cat is by far the fiercest

My cat Scout has lived with all four of our dogs (our Lab mix and our Collie mix have passed away), and we currently have a german shepherd and Lab/Chessie mix - Scout is the one who attacks.

Each new dog we have brought into the family becomes his play thing and boxing mate. He has no fear. He is 16 and still tries to start (play) fights with the GSD.

This video made my day!

[Hortensis]

32. Maggie was our Scout. She thought she was a person and

often went to the front of the yard to be petted by strollers, but she tolerated NO dogs of any size, and they, and their owners if they were with them, learned to pass on the other side of the street, or not at all. She was literally awesome.

Thank you, Are Grits. This is delightful!

[Enthusiast]

28. Best one, evah!

[Liberal_in_LA]

29. Lol. Didn't think a cat would attack a horse

[stage left]

31. Kittehs are hilarious! nt

[KamaAina]

35. The one moving side to side near the beginning reminded me of a calico we had

who would make that same motion any time a bird came on a nature show on PBS (this was many, many years before Animal Planet ).

She walked in on us right at the beginning of Thanksgiving dinner! She had obviously been on her own in the great outdoors for some time.

[JayhawkSD]

42. It's called "butt wiggling"

Our calico does it too, chin to the floor, fanny elevated and moving side to side, and sometimes becomes so enamored of the posturing that she forgets what it is that she was preparing to attack. Usually segues to grooming herself.

[OnyxCollie]

43. My cat does the head shake.

Eyes wide, head jiggling (3 shakes), and GO!

[hifiguy]

36. What every cat thinks

[lastlib]

49. My cat Inky never thought of herself as a lion(ess)---

She said she would never play in the Little Leagues for anybody.

[niyad]

37. wayyyyyyy funny--soooo stealing this!! thanks for the smiles and grins.

[Thespian2]

Bravery.
Hubris thy name is Cat.

[ryan_cats]

41. That reminds me

That reminds me, I had to remove all of the door springy-thinga ma jigs from the entire house as I would hear sproiyoyyoing while trying to sleep.
They were cute doing it though.
They never made noise in the night again.

[Warpy]

44. Should have left them.

It beats thunder-thunder-thunder SMASH.

[ryan_cats]

47. In addition to that...

In addition to that...

There's always the tinkle tinkle shatter sounds the Christmas tree brings.

Thanks for sharing! I put that on Facebook as I know a ton of people who will love it.

46. I met the cat that attacked the alligator in person

He lives at a place that gives swamp tours in Louisiana.

Here's a pic from that swamp:
