Your dog could be completely innocent and could have been doing CPR on the cat!! Just a thought. |
I agree.
The only other thing I though of is if the cat was badly hurt (hit by car, attacked by another cat, fox, big dog etc. and already dieing) Then your dog might have been able to pounce and bite the cat, without getting scratched or bitten himself. I have lived with cats and dogs all my life and have never known of a healthy adult cat to just give up. Every cat I have had would have fought to the death. It would have been a loud and bloody violent fight. Not one pounce and one bite.
