Couple calls the cops on their crazed cat

A Florida couple called the cops after their crazed cat attacked them and trapped them in their home.

Kush, a 4-year-old Russian Blue, lashed out at his owners, Teresa and James Gregory, in a fur-flying rampage that prompted calls to DeLand police.

The cat was removed from the home by animal control and has been quarantined for 10 days following the Saturday night attack that left its owners with several bloody scratches on their legs and hands, according to Bay 9 News.

They declined medical attention.

Kush’s assault sounded a lot like the case of 22-pound Lux, whose feline tantrum drove his owners to hide in a locked room and call Portland police back in March.

His owners gave Lux up, but his new family didn’t have luck trying to calm him down, either.

New cat owners even enlisted the services of cat whisperer Jackson Galaxy, host of the Animal Planet TV channel’s “My Cat From Hell.”

Galaxy diagnosed Lux with feline hyperesthesia syndrome, which can cause wild, unpredictable, violent mood swings. Lux’s new parents, even with Galaxy’s help, couldn’t make it work, and the violent furball was back in foster care last month.
