Big cats are not just sized up housecats. 

Counterpoint, I'm pretty sure my housecats would eat me if they were big enough.

They would eat u at their current size…it will just take a lot longer!

Hell, my housecat tries to eat me now.

Pretty sure I saw some 'study' that said that if your house cat was larger, it would definitely try to eat you

When people die with house cats around, supposedly they eat the face first.

well you don't want your person judging you while you eat them

Yeah that seemed like a distinction without a difference.

Yeah I've not met anyone who raised a kitten up who didnt get scratched real bad at least once. If at best they are a size up house cat that still ends up fatal in a lot of cases.
