Today I witnessed my cat get mauled by a neighbor's pit bull. The dog came from 4 houses away and my cat (who was resting in my flower bed on my property) tried to run away as best he can, but he's 20 years old. He shook my cat and went after his stomach multiple times. Luckily my family was able to pull the dog off of the cat and my cat sustained only minor injuries. Unfortunately, this is the second time in a year my cat has been attacked by this dog and he was not so fortunate the first time. That time he had severe injuries-profuse bleeding and a permanent limp. The pit bull owner came over and actually cussed out my entire family while we waited for the cops. He said he'd love to see my cat killed and described it in gruesome terms. The owner actually turned it around to say that my family and cat were at fault and he and his dog are the victims. Not once has he ever apologized for his dog repeatedly trying to kill my cat, instead he calls my family awful names, threatens charges, and plays the victim. The cops weren't much help whatsoever. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on this matter? I'm afraid for not only my cats life, but others in the neighborhood as well.
