I went to bed early Wednesday and was fast asleep when my Daughter runs into my room at 11PM crying and saying that our outside cat is getting attacked by a raccoon. It's about 20 degrees out and I ran out the door in my underwear with my 9mm Ruger P95 in my hand. Sure enough a 30 pound raccoon is just pinning the cat and about to finish it off. It was dark out, I didn't think to put my glasses on before I ran out and the cat and raccoon are about the same color. At this point they are looking very similar to my sleep blurred eyes so I had to be real careful not to hit the cat. My Daughter would never forgive me for that. I took one shot and put the raccoon right down. The cat had an injured leg from the attack, but is otherwise okay. First time I have ever heard of a raccoon attacking a cat! Now for the good part, I was using CorBon hollow points in the 9mm and it penetrated the raccoon completely, it just fell out of the fur on the off side and the once .355" bullet now measured .650". Nice mushroom, good job CorBon!!! Don

CorBon makes a great bullet and ammunition.

Hopefully your kitten had her rabies shots.... I just now thought of that.
