DELAND, Fla. -- A 4-year-old Russian blue cat named Kush is being quarantined after apparently going berserk inside a central Florida home, prompting its owners to call 911.

Police say the feline scratched owners Teresa and James Gregory on their arms and legs Saturday, causing the couple to retreat to a bedroom, where they called 911.

"She freaked out. ... She's got us locked in our bedroom," Teresa Gregory said, according to CBS affiliate WKMG. "She's never been like this.

The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports Teresa Gregory told the dispatcher she had mistakenly stepped on the cat's tail earlier in the day and the cat went after her husband. They locked Kush in the bedroom for most of the day. When they finally opened the door, Kush wasn't happy.

5. If they locked their child in a bathroom all day,

that would be child abuse. They lock their pet in a bathroom all day, that ISN'T animal abuse? If you ABUSE an animal, you are surprised when it tries to DEFEND itself against you? Oh, it's "only" a cat. Actually, as a more independent animal than a pack animal, abusive humans probably have more to fear from a cat than a dog.

6. Wait, let me guess

The cat is part pit bull.

Just because I don't want to start any pit bull arguments.
