And for the damage, just use the usual collision rules.

The rules could be exactly the same as any other kind of attack, I suppose.
Sometimes small creatures can knock down bigger ones. Some cats can take down enormous prey. My own, obese at the time, cat knocked down a fully grown man by kicking off the wall and slamming. My relative had a mattress between them afraid for how panicked my kitty was.
Cerbee was disturbingly strong, but still a house cat, not a leopard.
