You are entitled to use reasonable force to protect the cat. But if killing the dog is not necessary, you should not do it.

Sure, maybe in a 3rd world country where they have no animal abuse laws.
Why are you putting your cat out to be fair game for a dog you obviously know strays into your yard in the first place?
Guess what? If your cat is hurt while it’s outside, it’s your fault, end of story. You may be able to get monetary compensation from whoever owns the dog, but it won't heal or bring back your cat.

I don't know about killing the dog, but you can sure nail the owner for it. I had the reverse and my dog killed the cat. The cat was inside my LOCKED, FENCED-IN yard and the owner was wanting me to replaced his cat. NOT!! My property, your lose cat. Good luck!!! DOGS RULE!!

No it's against the law and if you kill a dog and it has tags you can be thrown in jail for a long time.

yes you can, the law states that you have the right to protect yourself and protect your property and pets are considered property

You can use reasonable force up to deadly force to save your cat. Hit him with a bat, shoot him with a gun, save the cat!
