[QUOTE="Vraille Darkfang, post: 3806142, member: 16989"] Nope, Columbia is the Closest city of any Size (& the closest on the list). Plus I commute to Columbia Every day to work. Our town is small (around 8,000 but is still the largest city in the county by at least a factor of 10). Was this kitten the cause of our trouble? Some. Any cat can rip up your flowerbeds & crap in them. It was old enough to be on its own (probablly not live long, but enogh to hunt, kill, & tear stuff up). Also, we have a lot of dogs in our neighborhood. And (it turns out) Raccoons, plus I've seen Deer. Any cat in our area is going to have its territory crossed by one of the following: 1. Raccoons (Cat vs Raccoon is nasty, & a full grown raccoon can do some damage). 2. Possums (Another nasty thing to corner, & also Rabies concern). 3. Skunk (Not a thing you want to poke with a stick). 4. Black Bear (Unconfirmed, but the do live further south, so the Occassional Bear wouldn't be out of the possiblity). 5. Coyote (see Black Bear, but has been sighted around). 6. Cougar (Even less chance than Black Bear, but they have been sighted in MO again). 7. Alligator Snapping Turtle (We've seen these things migrating from pond to pond. One guy has a Golden Retreiver had its leg bit off by one). 8. Chicken Farmers. (There are some local small free-range chicken farmers that WILL take a 22 to any Cat near their hen-house) 9. Ford F-150 Extended Cab (This it the most likely killer of outdoor kitties. Rare is the week I don't run across at least one cat/dog roadkill on the way to work.). Actually, outdoor cats here have more enemies than friends. This doesn't even begin with the Ticks, Fleas, and diseases outdoor cats can catch. PS. We now have Armadillos in the area, Do they attack cats? [/QUOTE]
