Lady kicks snow at cat; cat attempts to rip face off lady. Cat 1, Lady 0.

For CdM.  ;)

Sadly, I did not mean "mess with" in the way you expected.  :(

This is great.  Lady must have shit herself.

Love it.  Especially the "dafuq?" attitude the dog's got toward his owner.

What sick person:

a) sets up a camera to record them kicking snow at a cat; and
b) when they get attacked and look really really stupd, decide it would be a good idea to upload the video

Its kind of like those Jihadi videos where things go terribly wrong.  We do people post this stuff?

It appears to be a security camera. My guess is that the camera was owned by someone else and that it just fortuitously caught the cat incident. Obviously, that other person had no qualms about releasing the video for yuks ...

A Fox 2 News viewer sent in video and titled it a 'horrible cat attack.'

According to the caption provided, the woman in the video was trying to protect a small dog from a stray cat.

FOX 2 News app users, watch the video here.

You see her walking and kicking snow toward the cat, but it responds and leaps up at her head.  In the end it appears the person in the video may have been injured as she comes away holding her head.

She heads inside the house but the dog stays outside, behind a fence. The cat follows and heads toward the porch where the dog retreats.

End of video.

Update to the story:  The attack happened in Melvin, Michigan. The woman attacked tells us she ended up in the hospital after the cat sank it's front and back teeth into her forehead.  The cat also clawed he face, leaving marks on her cheeks.

She says she ended up getting an infection that manifested into cellulitis, causing her face to swell.

She says she took in the stray cat after learning someone was going to shoot it.  She said he was 'sweet as pie.' She also says she owns three other cats.

She said the stray cat began growling at her mom's dog and attempted to attack it.  She says that's why she tried to shoo it away.  Her confrontation with the cat is what you see on the video.

Sanilac County officials picked up the cat and tested it for rabies.  The tests came back negative.

Adios, cat.  You got your shots in when you could.  There's no dishonor in that.

So she brought in her mom's dog and when the cat (that she had also taken into her house) reacted to it like a cat, she decided kicking snow on it was the appropriate thing to do?  Not putting the dog inside and leaving the cat outside?  She seems dumb.

E:  Really sucks for that cat though.

Yeah, unfortunately for the cat, they didn't develop a rabies test that doesn't require dead brain tissue in time.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Every cat I've known would have run away in that situation.
