Its not as bad as it sounds.
Here we were walking the girls (Lily & Sandy), and we stopped to talk to a neighbor down the street. We saw him the other day walking a razor edge pitbull. We've seen him before, as he's stopped by when he'd seen Lily. He loves her coloring. (White w brown spots).
We knew he had to be breeding, but didn't know he lived so close by.
Anyways, we started walking and only got three houses down and a white cat attacked Lily in the face.It happened in a matter of seconds. We saw the cat, they barked, and the cat dove off a picnic bench and landed on Lily's face. She let out a cry, and Sandy turned to protect, and the cat ran up the tree.
I stopped and checked her face. She was shaking her head real bad, and first thought was it got her eye.
I stayed calm, and checked her over. She had a couple facial lacerations, but nothing to serious.
As bad as other people make these dogs, its funny that Lily never turned vicious. We have two cats and my second thought was I hope they don't go after them now!

That is one of my main reasons for keeping Ino crated when I am not home!! Punkin (one of my kitties) is somewhat territorial of the kitchen table area....it is a great place to execute a stealth attack (not aggressive- just in play). It always ends up with Ino play pouncing to get the kitty to come back out from under the table to play, but I am afraid of them playing too rough when I am not home. Eventhough kitty is good about keeping his nails retracted when he swats Ino, sometimes during play with me he gets carried away and forgets to keep them in and scratches me a bit. Plus, the kitty taught Ino to swat like a cat and he tries to "swat" them back playfully but it ends up being more of a punch (and he is very accurate with landing them)- 80lb dog vs a 15 lb cat....it is funny, but I have to intervene when he starts punching Punkin!!! Kitties can definately be feisty!!!
