Beware of the, er... kitten: Terrified postmen threaten to boycott house after attack by baby cat
Daily Mail [UK] ^ | 20th June 2009 | Daily Mail Reporter

Swiping playfully at the camera, it's hard to imagine she could be a danger to anything - except, perhaps, her favourite toy mouse.

But to postmen, Illy the kitten might as well be a snarling rottweiler.

They say that the six-month-old moggie once jumped up at the letterbox and delivered a painful scratch to a postwoman's hand.

So fearful are they of a repeat performance that they have sent a strongly worded letter to Illy's owners - warning them to discipline her or face a delivery ban.

The post people have a point.

One would need to take rabies shots even for a scratch by a cat or kitten- the animal licks its paws.

If you think that’s good, one of our illustrious County Sheriff’s Deputies unloaded on a kitty who was “attacking
her”.
Sad to say, but the Deputy still has a job, while the kitty
doesn’t.

BG was lost long ago to the mooselimbs in their midst. That a little cat can cower them should not surprise anyone.

Oh man...this is funny. The kitten saw something sticking through the door and wanted to play with it. I can’t believe that an adult can’t put something through that hole without putting their hand in there. Plus, I’ve had cats for years and have many scratches. I have some now. Nothing but a little blood.

They never do like dressup, but people do it anyway. Life is tough all over.
