I don't know if they'd do it on purpose. Most house cats are pretty docile. I like to joke that if one of my cats in particular was the size of a tiger he'd be terrifying. He likes to sharpen his claws like they are razorblades and loves killing things. It's tough to play with him for this reason because he gets really into it and it usually involves drawing blood. I've definitely had smaller children be afraid of my cats because in reality, they do have very sharp claws and sharp teeth, they're just tiny and don't weigh very much.
