This has gotta be one of the odder stories I've come across in a while. So, of course I have to share!
So according to this crazy story out of Idaho, a kitty named Renesmee (a reference you have to be a "Twilight" fan to get), attacked a Mr. and Mrs. Ostermiller in the wee hours of the morning in their bedroom
It was 5:30 in the morning when they heard a hiss. The cat, who had seemed normal until she had kittens three days earlier, might have seen another cat outside the window, Mrs. Ostermiller theorizes. She went to grab the cat so it wouldn't bolt out a hole in the screen door when the cat got mad.
"I was being mauled literally for the kill. She had got ahold of my nose first, my face first, my arms first, I was literally screaming, 'Blaine get off get her off, she's attacking me, get her off. He jumped up in the middle of his sleep, took his c-pap machine just jerked it off, threw it on the floor. He was literally able to pry her off of me,'" Jackie Ostermiller told reporters.
The kitty had time to get in 35 bites and 15 bruises. Jackie was cleaning up when the cat came back to finish her off.
The couple ended up in the hospital. The kitty ended up at the shelter (where she'll probably be put down after nursing kittens.) Mrs. Ostermiller's warning to others: "I want people to know how dangerous cats can be, they can turn on you in a dime. Believe it or not, cats!"
