Cat is absolutely capable of biting your finger off, yet when socialised properly they limit themselves with occasional excited scratching and light biting.

A feral cat is nothing to trifle with. My mom brought a cat home once from her coworker but it was a street cat that freaked the fuck out in the new environment. Almost severed one of the tendons in my mother’s hand and in the end it took 3 full grown men to get it out of our house.
