Pound for pound a cat any day, dogs are pack hunters.

The cat is obviously a lot bigger than the dog. The dog didn't have a hope. Whoever videoed this was cruel by not stopping it before it started.

Cats are primitive and destructive. No matter how domesticated and well fed they are - they are all vicious hunters. At times I could throttle the one remaining cat that I'm stuck with through no fault of mine. I love our native animals and they have an abundance of food in my garden - so it's become a cat's paradise when my back is turned. Unfortunately if I didn't have this cat who is very territorial - I would have every other stray in the area coming in on the sly to hunt.

Our first dog had a really protective attitude of humans. One day, my neighbours were walking to the shops, when this dog came running out of the yard to attack them. These girls decided to make the dash in the other direction. My parents' yard was not fenced at the time. Our dog came running out to greet this neighbourhood menace in a way that only he knew how. The other dog took off running, and our dog was a hero for the week with our neighbours.

I had an amazing wolf hound cross years ago. Ben was huge, but a beautiful and gentle dog. When his friend Jo Jo the cat gave birth under a bed in a spare room - Ben came out with a kitten held delicately in his huge mouth and bought it to me - then did the same with the other 2 kittens. Jo Jo used to suckle Ben when she was a kitten and he would lie there placidly while she kneaded away, so she was quite happy to share in the mothering of her kittens with him and Ben was more than happy to help.

Why you have to be prepared for large vet bills if you own a cat:

Am going to have to record one of our cats for posterity.  He's the most vocal cat I've ever heard and is on the cusp of actually speaking in Human.  Meanwhile, he has to be the Pavarotti of felines, the way he can project his voice.  It's monumental.  And he's close to speaking in throat-singing, the most astounding example being last Sunday evening when he topped even himself and would have been heard at least 100 metres away

He's able to meowl 'Hello', although it comes out more as 'Heerowww'.  And he has a fairly extensive vocabulary generally; certain sounds for 'food', others for 'go out?', etc. He doesn't mix his sounds up, they have remained constant over several years

Our other cat is a contender for Most Beautiful Cat in Australia and is a back-chatter.  His noises are softer, sweeter, but if you say 'no' to him, he sounds off like a little kid and always has to have the last word as he stomps away

Our Pavarotti cat was poisoned by some filthy renters about eight months ago. It left him with only 20% kidney (or liver) function according to the vet.  He used to be a complete pig, foodwise.  Now, he is allowed to have only special, bland stuff. When we try to vary his diet by including a tiny bit of chicken or tuna, etc., he projectile vomits several times in following hours, so unfortunately for him, he's stuck with the bland stuff. Still, he's managed to almost regain his former weight and is getting pretty cocky again.  He'll be 16 soon. He's still missing his lifelong companion who died a couple of years ago at 18.  I still miss the other guy too and dream about him sometime. He was the Jesus of cats
