So my cat wants to eat me? Whaaaa?

My niece wouldn't stop waving my cat's toys in front of her face, so my cat gave her a no-claw slap.

Yes, Lions Will Hunt Humans If Given The Chance

Yep, defending territory.

There's not a single word in the article about lions 'defending territory'.  The primary reasons given for lions attacking humans are 1) they see us as a food source 2) a lioness defending cubs and 3) threatened by the presence of humans.  Various other sources (look them up yourself, I'm tired of doing your homework) confirm that the primary reason lions attack people is that people are easy prey.

Do you never get tired of being wrong?

That's what the lion was doing.  Do you think a lion jumped through someone's window because it was hungry?  This may surprise you, but there are many sources out there that talk about this.  I read a couple after reading what the link you shared.  It's not that I was wrong.  It's just that you read one thing and believed that was the end all on that lion, when it wasn't.  In fact, was reading about various reasons that a lion may attack a human.  For example, since they often hunt big game, it's not uncommon for them to injure their jaw trying to bring something down.  At that point, it goes from "normal prey" to "selective prey" because they can't go after the bigger animals anymore.  Simply out of necessity.  Not because they thought people looked tasty.

Either way, they eat people.

Domestics cats let you know that you might be bigger, but in their eyes, you're still prey.

Given half the chance, I think most pets would eat you.  Except goldfish.  I think you'd be pretty safe turning your back on a goldfish.

I'm sure if your cat was big enough to kill and eat you, it would. We love to see our kitties as cuddly little buddies who we force kisses and hugs on, but they're really little killers. Except my cat, I don't think she has enough energy to kill anything but a bowl of kitty munch.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.

The only way my cat would eat me is if I was served up on his special plate in his special dining spot. Tearing my flesh from my body would be too much like work. Now, he may dine on my remains if it were properly served...
