I shall keep most answers to myself. Although, let it be said: I often concoct fantasies about how my mother's cat might meet a bad end. Especially when he mauls my couch. Then the fantasy involves flamethrowers.

I am dog guy, but I would never hurt a kitty. My dog, would, but I try to teach her to get along. Her biggest trial though, was when I adopted a baby squirrel that fell out of its nest. I thought my dog would kill me just to get to it. I actually hunt and eat squirrel, but not the ones around my house, they are my neighbors. I managed to get that baby to a squirrel rescue place. If I ran into her, a few miles away, I would probably kill her and eat her.
