..what was poody-cat doing roaming around, anyway…? Killing birds…? Maybe naughty poody had that very intention, but Fido was on the scene and poor poody-cat lost out…such is the circle of life…
As explained above, the owner doesn’t need to take it to court. The dog has killed another animal without having the one legal excuse that it was defending its territory. The cops could be called and the animal declared dangeorus which would probably mean that it could no longer live in the unit block (under normal by-laws).
So your glee at the cat being killed might be tempered by the thought that the cat owner could ask for payment for the vet bills or else a triple-0 call might be in order
