I'm only pointing this out as an FYI you might want to keep in the back of your head. I'm not implying anything other then use your noggin a bit.
Most states have CCW. If you show up all pissed off on someones doorstep and proceed to start swinging, they can legally gun you down where you stand call the cops to pick up your body and be back to the table before dinner cools down.
Now most reasonable people wouldnt just start shooting.....But then again most reasonable people wouldnt let their animal run the neighborhood then try to beat the ****** out of people when the animal that was running on other peoples property gets killed either.
This doesnt sound too legit... I mean what a great way to commit murder... just call your victim up, and invite them over for tea, when they show up at the door, gun them down, call 911 and claim they tried to punch you in the head.
Or would you have to wait til they hit you a few times to prove they tried to punch you in the head, and THEN shoot them?

You'd have to prove that in the situation, you felt your life threatened and there was no other way you could settle the situation without using lethal force.

Why aren't you in court yet? And go absolutely BONKERS when it comes to that - make sure she tries to collect on the full $180k, which will push this out of small claims and into a real court. DO NOT request a jury, no matter how appealing the potential for humiliation. That could backfire, because there are a lot of tools like Proletariat out there. You'll find that the trial judge will EAT HER LIVER for wasting real court time on what is, at best, a small claims matter, and proceed to award you your $200.

I had a talk with the neighbor's "representative" because she couldn't speak. He tried at first to seem like a lawyer, refusing to identify himself other than her "legal representation". When I pressed him for his firm's name before I would speak at all, he finally fesses up that it is actually her husband's brother.

Anyhow, he says the cat is a Himalayan Tabby and to replace would cost $2000 for the cat, plus another $300 for misc vet setup fees (like vacinations) and finnally, assuming they kept on pace with breeding her twice a year (which they claim they were) and a litter of 5 a time, the cat would still have 9 yrs of breed time = 90 kittens that would have been sold, meaning I should owe them $180,000. If I could not pay, then they would take me to court, or perhaps find some "middle ground". If not, then they would have no option but to call cops, get my dogs impounded, and try to sue me for my personal assets.

Amen to that, as my criminal law professor put it, "Texas is an interesting state... in fact its the only state where the law says that if the decedent 'needed some killin', then the plaintiff is, in many cases, not guilty of murder."

How is getting the dying pet medical attention being nice? I don't understand this, maybe I'm operating on a different level here.
I think thats pretty much standard practice.

Put down for what? Staying in their own yard?
Should all neighborhood cats who wander about and tear up people's trash be put down, too?

Neighor's husband's brother called trying to be a lawyer and "reason with me."
Told me I owe them $182,300 total to replace the cat and what it would have brought in over its life time.
Told them to go ahead and call the cops and my lawyer, who is really an old friend.
Cat didn't look anything like what the internet pics look like.

Yeah seriously. How about dobermans, rotts, or any other big protective breed? Should they be put down too so all we have left is little worthless yappy dogs and cats?
Dogs kill cats always have always will. That bigger dogs are actually effecient in thier task should'nt be held against them. That cat is retarded for jumping into a yard manned by dogs. Darwin at work.
