Your neighbours German Shepard was a bitch then. My dog would eat any cat smaller than a Lynx if they were in a room together, but a cat would be way more likely to do anything to a kid. If cats were the size of a bulldog they would be murderers.

To be honest I have had both cats and dogs. When a dog runs at a cat the cat usually runs away. If the cat didn't run the dog sometimes doesn't know what to do. That's when the cat takes advantage of the confusion and lands on the dog with twenty claws sticking out. I have seen happen many times. And yes, there are dogs who would continue at the cat ripping it to pieces but there are also cats that will gladly fight to the death getting the dog pretty good in the process.

I was disappointed I thought this was a recipe.
Preparing Your Cat for a New Baby | ASPCA
I dislike your thoughts that cats should be eaten by babies but the way you linked it together was quite funny. Of course babies shouldn't eat cats, way too much hair.I read that article and it is just stupid. A cat gets ready for anything on its own. If it's in his house it belongs to him by default anyway.The cat will see the baby and realise he has another servant when the little kid gets older. It's all good for him.
Haha fair enough, was only being silly but that's true. My dogs very chipper and friendly but he was almost feral when they found him, had run away from an Indian reservation. I'm pretty sure he still has some serious prey drive and would literally eat a cat without confusion. He's almost 110 pounds and really lean though so not your average mutt.

Cats are responsible for the deaths of 3 billion song birds a year. This is because of irresponsible cat owners who dont like to clean a litter box. I'd catch my neighbours cats near my bird feeder all the time and scare them off but never really knew which neighbour housed them. After I got my little bear dogs they have never been back. They saw one under my deck when they were about 6 months old which was 1 and a half years ago and there has never been one near my place. The cat was lucky to make it to the fence at which point it appeared to take flight. Either one like @p4pking 's husky would kill and most likely eat part of or all of a cat. I have no wish for that to happen cause I love cats and had two that died of old age before I got my dogs. I never let them out. Not just because of birds but because up here they are a prey item.
Songbirds... If cats could kill crows then they might be more worthy of consideration as decent animals.

Thats right and what does a fantasy have to do with reality? Why should we be thanking cats? Bird populations all over this planet are dangerously low and the amount of endangered species is almost comparable to life in the oceans. Do bird diversity a favour and clean your litter box or dont get a cat.
I've actually thought about a Hitchcock style "Cats" movie before, it could work.

There is already a fictionalized movie about factual events. Worth the watch if you get the chance.
Its like Jaws on land, professional hunter brought in etc.
It did happen though.

My heart goes out to the girl and the family, it's just terrible.
But I will say I'm 100% against breed specific banning. I don't believe that dogs are inherently bad, but rather become that way through negligence from the owner.
There are certain dogs with a predisposition towards certain undesirable aggressive behaviours, and if you're going to own one of these breeds (pitbulls, rottweilers, dobermans, bulldogs, ect), it comes with a certain amount of responsibility.
I have a year old 100+ lb purebred rottweiler. Before I bought him, I did the research and knew what I was getting into, and from the day I got him I made sure I trained and socialized him and brought him up right. When I bring him to the dog park, people are always surprised at how friendly he is with people, kids, and other dogs.
The problem is, too many times you get complete MEATHEADS owning pitbulls, rotties, bulldogs, ect because they want to own the "tough" dog and they don't do the right things, and eventually the dog becomes a liability. They don't train or socialize the dog, and then the dog gets blamed when he acts out. It really is sad.
There are over 10,000 species of birds with an estimated total number betwixt one hundred and four hundred billion birds on the planet. Yes, some are endangered but blaming cats for that is giving them too much credit. I think birds are doing fine even with the carnage cats are causing. Hats off to cats, for a land creature to take down a flying creature is impressive. I love when we humans, who kill every and anything critique another animal for its high rate of casualties. That is strictly for humans, we love to do shit like that.
