I got dressed and went over and something was very wrong with that cat. I had been there before and she was very sweet. This cat was acting almost evil.
I threw a big comforter over the cat and trapped it with a laundry basket. I then slid a piece of cardboard under so we could pick her up.
We took her to the vet and they were scared stiff of her. They had no idea what set that cat off. They actually had to put her down.
Lisa is still scared out of her mind about cats. I doubt she will ever get over that night. Her Dad was a retired Army Colonel and he called me to thank me because she had called her Dad in Texas wanting to know what to do.
I'll never forget it. If she had not been so insistent on getting the cat to the Vet I would have killed her. She was that screwed up.

I love that.

Guess they're a little paranoid about their babysitters?

I've seen some nasty cats, but I haven't seen that from some dumpy house cat. I'm glad my cat thinks she's a dog, it's much easier having a pet that actually likes you.

1. Why didn't you immediately pick up my child to protect him from the cat?

In its Cat brain it got the notion that the girl did something wrong.
