"The Oregon owners of a 22lb housecat that trapped them in their bedroom after attacking their baby say they're not giving up on their pet and are getting it medical attention and therapy.

"We're not getting rid of him right now," Palmer said. "He's been part of our family for a long time." Palmer says the animal attacked his seven-month-old child after the baby pulled its tail. The child suffered a few scratches on the forehead."* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.
