This Family Should Never Own A Cat
These people seem to lack any knowledge on what's proper to do to protect the baby & be fair to the cat.
The child pulled the cat's tail & got scratched ( it doesn't show in the video) so the dad kicked the cat in the
rear. The cat then responded by coming after him. This whole incident could have been avoided if they had
been watching the baby or keeping the cat elsewhere if they were too busy to supervise the interaction.

PORTLAND, Ore. - The Oregon owners of a 22-pound housecat that trapped them in their bedroom after attacking their baby say they're not giving up on their pet and are getting it medical attention and therapy.Two days after police arrived to subdue the 4-year-old part-Himalayan cat, owner Lee Palmer of Portland said he's taking the feline to a veterinarian. A pet psychologist also is due at the house to see the cat, named Lux.
"We're not getting rid of him right now," Palmer said. "He's been part of our family for a long time."
Palmer says the animal attacked his 7-month-old child after the baby pulled its tail. The child suffered a few scratches on the forehead.
