Is this Britain's meanest moggy? Oscar the 'ASBO cat' who
terrorises the village and put retired colonel in hospital for six days
(oh, and a very funny posed picture by a good-natured Col Ridgway too).

Much more, with plenty of pictures of (the alleged) ASBO Cat and an "Oscar: the IKEA Days" video, at Daily Mail link aboveWhen Oscar the cat went missing, offers from neighbours to help look for him were few and far between.
Instead, the atmosphere near his home was one of distinct relief.
For the residents of Wingrave, Buckinghamshire, thought they had at last seen the rather aggressive back of the five-year-old Turkish Van they nicknamed ‘Asbo cat’.

Oscar is said to have terrorised the area, attacking dogs and residents. One victim, retired lieutenant colonel Tom Ridgway, 77, spent six days in hospital after Oscar mauled his right arm and sank his teeth into his left thumb all the way to the bone.
But to the regret of Mr Ridgway and his neighbours, Oscar, who vanished on October 17, is now back home – safe and sound.
