My last Siamese was like that, more of a dog then cat,
Would make a cracking hiss whenever there was a knock at the door, one evening I opened the door to 2 deer, no they didn't knock, cat sees them runs to about 5' away stands on his rears, they take off he takes off, took him 2 days to make it back. I would walk around the block twice for exersise he would always walk with me, but would never make the 2nd lap. Lol

That cat was twice as large as she was; hauled her in and took off with her like a mouse

I remember reading some books by Jim Corbett (a man killer tiger hunter in India in the early 1900's). He talked about how strong and blindingly fast they were in an attack.
I read several of Corbett's books in my younger years also & you're right, they are at the top of the food chain in their environment.
Saw a documentary a while back about wood cutters in India (I think) - they wore masks on the backs of their heads as a tiger supposedly does not prefer a frontal attack.

I saw the mask story too when i was making sure of the spelling on Corbett's name. I was amazed at the number of tiger attacks on humans in early India. Also the wanton sport slaughter of them
Saw this which you would appreciate from the estate of Elmer Keith, Corbett's tiger rifle at auction last year. ($275K)

That is an awesome rifle!
I've always had a "thing" for doubles, but alas cannot scratch up the ass load of zero's it takes to have a really nice one, but I did pick up one of these from Cabelas in .58 several years back.
With 120 gr of black powder and a 510 gr Lyman hard cast slug it'll let you know what for.
Edit: Twice!!

That would seem to be overkill in the lower 49. nice gun.
Word.
And on a completely unrelated and bizarre subject.
Flatbed truck rolls over and spills tens of thousands of pounds of fish onto Juneau road
Fish processing workers pick up spilled chum salmon after a delivery truck overturned on Egan Drive in front of Juneau-Douglas High School on Monday. One person was transported to Bartlett Regional Hospital.
Juneau police say a flatbed tuck carrying thousands of pounds of chum salmon tipped over while driving on Egan Drive Monday, spilling its contents onto the road and delaying commuters.
Egan Drive inbound was "completely blocked," a Juneau Police Department Facebook post said around 5 p.m.
Traffic was redirected at a nearby intersection, said Lt. David Campbell, as motorists were advised to avoid the area and use Glacier Highway via Channel Vista to drive into downtown Juneau.
Updates on the police department's Facebook page indicate it took about three hours to get Egan Drive cleared and sanded.
Four officers and local fire personnel responded to the rollover, Campbell said. The driver of the truck was taken to Bartlett Regional Hospital with minor injuries, he said.
The truck's load of salmon tumbled onto the road out of gray bins. Campbell did not know who the truck belonged to but said it's likely a local commercial fish processing outfit.
According to KTOO production manager Mikko Wilson's Twitter account, Taku Fisheries says 16,000 pounds of fish will have to be thrown out as it's considered contaminated.
The cause of the crash is unknown, Campbell said.
As for the fish?
"We don't do cleanups like that," Campbell said. The company that owns the flatbed truck responded and tossed the fish back in the bins.
"The scene smells a bit fishy," police said as the efforts unfolded.
