- whether the animal was confined or roaming free when the attack occurred
- the animal’s past history of attacks
- the owner’s knowledge of the animal’s tendency to attack
- negligence, recklessness or intentional misconduct on the owner’s part
- insurance coverage limitations on dangerous pets

What may appear to be minor scratches or bites may develop into a more serious condition if the cat is rabid or otherwise diseased.
