A crow attacked my cat

I live on the 3rd floor apartment. My cat was enjoying time near my window. My mom saw a huge crow and it hit the mosquito net. The cat was terrified and lost control. I worried that he could fall from height. But he lost control and was so scared that headed towards the hallway. This happened in a few seconds. I wonder why crows attack cats. I didn't see a baby crow nearby, but they were very noisy. I am glad that nothing serious happened. And the mosquito net wasn't ruined. The crow crashed into it and it was huge.

I hear about birds doing this kind of thing every now and then. I would like to know why birds do this.

I think the crows are trying to protect their baby crows. They eat garbage and here people want to feed them. I saw a lot of food for them. Some neighbors prefer to feed the crows instead of throwing away the leftovers. They are feeding the cats too.

I am glad too. It could have been worse. Today I saw a crow trying to scare a dog. The dog was with its owner. They try to attack dogs with owners, and cats that are inside.

Can't say why the crow attacked your cat.But a few years ago a flock of crows had attacked me.Actually I had unknowingly arrived near a baby cat.

A baby cat or a baby crow? They can attack people too. Some people ended up in the hospital. My dad was almost attacked by crows because he caught their baby. I can't believe that he had this courage. Did you have to go to the hospital? Did they cause serious injuries?

Yes, there are a lot of crows. I think they try to protect their young crows. I saw a baby crow recently and its mother fed it.

Yes. I wasn't aware of this. Our city has too many crows, but they are useful and they are protected.

@dya80dya I do not know why but those crows are becoming more and more aggressive, I fear them, because they group together to attack.

It's true. Today I saw a crow trying to scare a dog. They are attacking pets and humans too. Now I am afraid of them. I didn't know that they were so aggressive. Maybe they have baby crows and they are trying to protect them. I can't find another reason.

I don't know how big your cat is. I believe crows eat meat, usually mice and such. I'm sorry that happened.

The attacking crow may feel that its territory has enemies and is to protect the safety of itself and its family.

Those big black crows can be very aggressive. They eat practically anything. It amazes me how big some of them really are.

@dya80dya Yes, cats are bigger, however, kittens are not, and they are more vulnerable if left outside.

Maybe your cat was wearing something shiny that attracted the crow? I heard the crows are attracted to shiny things. Not sure if that's true though.

My cat is 6 kg and quite big. The crow is small and I wonder how it can dare to attack a bigger animal.
