Saw this last night of Countdown with Keith Oberman. They showed pictures of a couple of people bitten by this cat. The owner refused to keep the cat indoors even after getting a court order. They had to threaten to put it to sleep before she complied. Evidently it is only aggressive when outdoors.
Conn. neighborhood terrorized by cat
FAIRFIELD, Conn., March 29 (UPI) -- Residents in a Connecticut town say they are so terrorized by a neighbor's cat they have taken out a restraining order on him and his owner.
His name is Lewis -- a 5-year-old that Fairfield resident Ruth Cisero adopted three years ago and saw no violent tendencies.
The Connecticut Post reports her neighbors have.
"He looks like Felix the Cat and has six toes on each foot each with a long claw," said Janet Kettman, who claims the black-and-white long hair cat attacked her twice.
Animal Control Officer Rachel Solveira said Lewis isn't deadly but could cause enough injury to send someone to the hospital.
In fact Avon lady Donna Greenstein was sent there after an alleged bout with Lewis and has filed a lawsuit against Cisero.
Lewis was placed under house arrest but has escaped many times, prompting the arrest of his owner.
But Cisero said Lewis has been egged and sprayed with a hose and is now just acting in self defense
