I had a really nice plant going it was about 5-7 inches tall and had some nice big fat leaves on it. I had it outside and brought it inside and didn't even have it in for 20 minutes and my cat ate a majority of my leaves but did not touch the main stem then I moved to what I thought was a more secure location but my cat struck again and this time he chomped on the top section of the stem... My question is: is there a possibility that my plant is going to come back and survive this?

If you've still got leaves to process light, you've still got a chance it'll survive.

These plants are tougher than you think.

it only has a couple of the big leaves it had before it was munched on but it has small leaves growing out of the stem. it is only a few weeks old and was growing like crazy before it was munched on, I was surprised at how stinky this plant is at this young of an age.

It'll pull through.

Just keep that furry little bastard away from it and it'll be back to normal in no time.

Yep, cats definitely love cannabis... It can definitely pull through though, put it back in the sun and you should see new leaves within the week!

yeah same thing happened to my buddy not to long ago and they recovered nicely but this wasn't a reoccurring thing. it will survive and you can manage to keep that cat away from it

I have moved into an area where the cats have no access to it... I decided to move it inside from the outside because outside it wasn't hidden at all and the bigger it gets the more noticeable it is. I have it under lights, and I have some wind blowing on it... I left it in the planter it has been in so I don't shock it any worse with a transplant. I would have had to bring it in sooner or later due to it being started late, I want to give it enough time to grow before putting it into flower.

Psht be glad your cat isn't like one of my dogs. Scrawny little bitch will dig up anything that's in a pot. If it's a container and has dirt in it. She WILL dig until she hits the bottom no matter how deep it is.
Your cat topped your plant for you though. No big deal it should just bush out here soon.
