This is the horrifying moment two prowling American Bully XL dogs broke into a garden and savagely mauled a cat to death.
Dog attacks cat
The two beasts were caught in the middle of the night on Ring doorbell footage barging into the front garden of a home in Hounslow, West London.
The animals launched for one cat, which managed to dart into a bush and escape.
But a second cat wasn’t so lucky, as it was pinned to the floor by the growling dogs, who tore into the screeching feline, killing it.
The attack was the latest in a slew of incidents in the London suburb which has left the community terrified – and comes amid mounting pressure for the ‘lethal’ XL Bully breed to be banned in Britain.
The dog triggered panic
Hours earlier, the mutts reportedly tried to attack dog walkers and chased children, prompting a panicked warning from the local primary school.
One woman was even forced to flee her home after the dogs broke her door down and attacked her.
Deepan Patel, whose beloved cat Dusty was killed in the rampage on September 3, found his pet’s bloodied body the next morning.
Mr Patel shared the attack with Hounslow Council’s animal warden and the Met Police before taking to social media to warn his neighbours about the dogs – which triggered panic, with other locals sharing their experiences.
Speaking of his ordeal, Mr Patel told MyLondon: ‘The whole family is incredibly upset and my mother is in tears. The dogs should not be roaming freely and could easily have entered an open window or door and attacked a small person.’
The attack came three hours after residents reportedly spotted the animals charging around and bumping into children.
Police were alerted at 6.30pm about the dogs, Mr Patel claimed, before a second call was placed at 8.15pm after one of the animals leapt into a neighbour’s garden and broke her door – before then trying to attack her, forcing her to flee her home.
An hour later and the two out-of-control hounds charged into Mr Patel’s garden and slaughtered his cat.
‘The police could have prevented Dusty from being killed if they had come when they said they would,’ he said.
How sad. Pitbulls Are not bad. But they are offten raised bad. And should never be allowed to run around at night or anytime.If you know your dogs are bothering pepole and killing poor cats and threating pepole. Maybe you should not have them.Take care of them keep them at their own home. Do not allow them to ever rome free. Do what you can to make sure they dont harm anyone or anything. Dont trun a blind eye. They can kill a person then you could find yourself in jail for a long time. Please do right by your aminals and pepole.
