That is part of the reason why I'd get terrified - I have a scar on my leg from a house cat. (A friend of mine brought a kitty that he just adopted here, I was holding the kitty on my arms, Kika saw it as an invader and... well, she attacked the thing nearest to the invader that she could reach, i.e. my leg.) So when I see those big cats I can't help but imagine a 30x larger house cat, with all the dangers that it entails. And the associated cuteness.

Oh, you are absolutely right. Feral cats can fuck you up, because they have zero qualms about using ultraviolence.
