From my own personal experience, I feel that cats are really very dangerous..once I had kept a kitten and I was playing with it and suddenly It scratched me so badly.. and from next day I stopped playing with it..I got really scared of it...what do you feel are they really very dangerous to keep..or play with?

Also tell how many cats do you have and how much time do you spend with it..

I have never found them to be dangerous. They will retract their claws when they're playing and only bring them out if they feel threatened. Perhaps it misunderstood your intentions? Cats are usually only dangerous to mice and other pests!

happyI do not think cats are dangerous! You can get them declawed and then you will not get scratched. Mine is about to have babies and is a little miserable right now but not mean!

Please don't suggest getting a cat declawed. The procedure removes the entire first joint of the cat's toe. It would be the same as cutting off your fingers at the first knuckle. It is very painful and can make a cat bite since it can't use it's claws.

Cats, as you say, are not at all dangerous. But they are animals and need to be respected as such.

My cat is declawed and they gave her pain meds before they took her claws out!The next day she was playing like she always does. She does not bite! I do not feel I disrespected her by doing this. I am very good to my cat.

Cats are not as dangerous as dogs^_^ What a cat can do to us is just to scratch us with their claws and that's it, we will only suffer superficial wounds..

UNlike dogs, once they are provoked, they will bite and their bites can be fatal, and rabbies is sure to infect us if we dun get it trated immediately..

But still, i will prefer dogs over cats because they can more fun and playful^_^ And they know their master, as well as who treat them nice and who doesn't^_^

First you have a point that wounds from a dog mauling can be fatal... That said, cats while not as dangerous as dogs can be, they can do much more then superficial wounds and are just as subject to rabies as dogs. When I was 4 years old my parents had a big white cat named Snowy. He was my best friend and playmate while my brothers were all in school. One night he got his paw caught in the mesh of my playpen. My dad and a neighbor tried to free him but he was so scared that he went bizerk and clawed up both my dad and the neighbor so bad they had to go to the hospital for about 30 stiches. If you ever have to rescue a cat from such a situation best put on heavy long sleeve jacket and leather gloves. Any animal when it is injured, trapped, or feels threatened can be dangerous. Kittens can get feisty in playing. Cats are predators by nature and kittens can get this surge of fighting instinct as they grow... A stern NO! and leaving the kitten alone for a short while, kinda of a time out, will teach it that it is not OK to be so feisty with you. Getting cats spayed or neutered as soon as they are old enough helps tone done that fighting instinct.

Yeah.. Actually cats are much more agressive when it comes to fights, and even dogs are not their match..

Something must have spooked the little kitty or it may have been abused before and got scared. I have never had a problem with a cat. We have had many, many cats. They all have diffrent personalities and love in diffrent ways. Some can be very skiddish while some so layed back nothing will make them jump, but dangerous. Absolutely not. Right now We have two cats and my dad has 3 cats. At one time we had five cats and four dogs. When I think back that was a bit much but would have never admmitted to it at the time. I have loved all my animals and all are special.

Most cats are not dangerous. The thing one must understand about cats is that they play when they want to play and they are eager to tell you when they have had enough playtime as yours did. But a cat who is given love from a human will return it just as well. We have one house cat and 12 barn cats. We give them all attention as they want it. Whenever we go out to the barn, we stop to give all of those around us some attention. They usually all come running out and if we sit outside by the barn, then they are around us all of the tiime.

cats are more prone to that outburst than dogs, the only problem with pets dogs if they do bite is youll get wounded more severely, ive no problems with our dog on that kind of behaviour, a cats attack is not that severe compare to dogs but not if it has rabies, since cats are prone to that kind of thing you should always vacinnate them first before having them as a pet, same with dogs also, but cats attack their owners more than dogsninjaninjaninja

I don't think that cats are that dagerous. There can be problems (my cat would scratch or bite me if I played with it wrong). People just need to be careful around animals. If a certain action causes the cat to scratch, try to avoid that particular action.

Cats are only dangerous if you allow yourself to believe it and your fear shows through. Cats are very intuitive and can sense your fear instantly. I have had many cats over the years and none of them has posed a danger to me.
You can make any animal dangerous if you try. Even a gerbil can be dangerous. Just treat them the same gentle way you want them to treat you and they will be loving and sweet with unconditional love.
