    Obviously I don’t know the specifics of this situation, but if a cat jumps into a fenced yard with a dog and gets chased, that seems pretty unfair since the dog owner is being responsible. But maybe that wasn’t the case here.

      I am a responsible dog owner. The guy was just a jerk, and he still is.

        If you ever get another cat, name it Snowflake and make sure to tell your neighbor you named it after them 😁👍

        Not about your specific situation, but Cats can definitely kill hens. I used to live on a small farm and we had issues with some wild cats.

        Lots of other issues with other predators, but it’s entirely possible, especially at night.

        I would probably buy a gun and shoot someone if they shot my cat. Humans aren’t more special than animals. That’s like the one thing that would get me riled up enough to commit a crime of passion is hurting my cats.
