One more reason to love dogs: A gang of feral cats in France attacked
a woman and her poodle, forcing both victims to seek medical attention
for their injuries.

The cat-attack occurred Sunday near the city of Belfort in eastern
France. The 31-year-old woman was walking her dog near a wooded area
when six felines set upon her, knocking her to the ground, The
Independent reports.

The victim was treated for injuries at a nearby hospital where she was
also given an injection for rabies. Her poodle was treated at a nearby
veterinary clinic. [10 Amazing Facts About Cats]

Josette Galliot, the mother of the victim, said, "The cats jumped on
my daughter and managed to knock her over. They bit her on the leg and
on her arms. They even pierced an artery."

"My daughter thought it was a living nightmare. She's still
traumatized and is bordering on depression," Galliot said.

Veterinarians and local residents are divided over what may have
provoked the feline fury. According to some observers, a recent heat
wave in the area may have played a part in the unusual mauling.

Veterinary specialist Valerie Dramard believes the cats were
protecting their territory from the poodle, and the woman simply got
in the way.

"Cats are not new zombies of the apocalypse," Dramard said
reassuringly. "They are just very territorial and unfriendly with
unknown species."

You certainly are a dip****. What could possibly be more ON TOPIC in
rec.pets.cats.anecdotes than a news story from a viable news source
about an unusual cat behaviour? It is also posted to alt.atheism
because all posts are ON TOPIC when posted by an atheist.
