If it felt like it, I suppose.

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/8350288/Dog-saves-owner-from-armed-sex-attack

"A Christchurch woman was saved from a vicious sexually motivated attack by the loyal dog she adopted only two months ago.

The 19-year-old believes she survived only because her dog leaped on the attacker, biting him on the neck or shoulder.

The woman told The Press her 13-month-old german-shepherd-greyhound-border-collie cross's intervening allowed her to run away and flag down a passing car. "

Wonderful story.

I have one a lot less wonderful but it shows what a cat can and will do. We had adopted a stray. He was a love but had a strong sense of himself and what was allowed and what was not.

My son, about 10 at the time, had a friend over and they were play wrestling. The other kid was on top when Tom the Bomb jumped on him and started biting him. My son won that round handily. :)

I just knew that a cat could but that's a funny story, Angora.

Pearl knows she can take down Roland any time she wants but she doesn't.
We all had a visit last weekend, Pearl on the periphery when we went outside
to view the gardens and she did give Roland the once over when we first arrived.
Friends still. He is much less aggressive than the tom, Prince, who lives in the
same house. We all had lunch, however, only the two animals checked out each
others' dishes when they were done eating.
