4. Hell no.
If a domestic cat was the size of a tiger...he might decide to eat you.

7. Only if they are as lazy as housecats
So if tigertabby decides to attack you, run into a sunbeam and he'll fall asleep.

11. I've watched my cat having his "fun" with rodents......

with a sadistic flair that would make Lyndie England shudder in disgust. The eventual death is a relief.

I always thought at those times about how different my household would be if he were bigger than me....I would be the one hiding in the laundry basket.

They're all teeth and claws. They could tear your ass up good!

20. Most (mine included) are even more sinister.
An initial bite to the back of the neck renders partial paralyzation, making escape impossible. (Cats can be so lazy)

Death comes only after the prey becomes "boring"

And they say only humans kill for sport.
