Not all cats, but a lot of cats. Also a lifelong cat owner. I have a cat who I would warn small children away from. His littermate is so friendly and cuddly, though. Of course, both want nothing to do with kids, so they disappear as soon as someone under 4’ enters the house.
The only thing that prevents cats from killing us is their size. They want to.

Those meows to be fed are actually death threats to be fed.
Yes, their size is the entire point though.
