It’s a terrible thing that happened to her.
Any animal can be dangerous under certain conditions. Personally I have had more blood drawn by cats and parrots and the occasional squirrel than dogs, but I respect dogs more.
I have had 3 cats send me to the Urgicare over the years. Cat bites are the worst! Little buggers with needles for teeth...get an infection from them in a hot second!
Last stinker was in 2020 for a behavior consult. Bit 4 times through my blue jeans before I even walked in the door. Owner was there and we used a laundry basket to skuttle the little bugger to the bedroom. Seems he had an affinity of attacking people at the door.
