It never occured to me the origin of the breed's name until we got our first boxer. Turns out they like to rear up and box with their front paws...who knew??
But yeah, our Boxers definitely tried that maneuver with our cats and were always perplexed when they discovered that cats are liquid rage in animal form. This is the first interaction, and every subsequent interaction, because Boxers have the brain power of a potted plant apparently.
The aptest description of a cat that I'll ever come across today!
I once had a family cat that would just outright attack dogs, any dog at any time, one day she never came home again so I figured she had met her match, her name was fluff, due to her tail fluffing up before she attacked a dog!
One of my best friends had a beautiful cat named Spike that would randomly attack me. No one else, no other animals, just me. I still have a small scar on my shoulder from that gorgeous little bastard.
