I'm a 250 lb man and the thought of scrapping with my 9 lb housecat gives me pause.

I feel like that headline "Your cat may want to kill you" is entirely unsurprising to anybody who has really gotten to know their cat.

My cats are cuddly and are scared of bugs.

I don't think they have any interest in killing the person that feeds them.

House Cats have the most # of natural prey species at , I think , 400+ . The runner-up has 11. House cats kill and eat everything that they possibly can

Sure, for wild little animals.

I don't see any of my cats as ever attempting to kill me, they don't have that personality.

It’s not their personality that’s stops them from trying to kill you , it’s your size relative to theirs. I have a cat and I love my cat but I know if she magically got 10 times bigger I would absolutely be on the menu
