Our nine month old Main Coon cat Azlan has brought home two dead chicks (chicken) One today and the other a couple of days ago They had just started to grow there grown up feathers on there wings I know he is only acting on instinct but I am a little miffed that whoever owns the chicks are not protecting them well enough Surely if he can get them then Mr Fox will also have a good chance I live on a new build estate and know of "Ooops, word censored!"ody else who keeps chickens He also brought home a duckling the other week

how awful. I mean, it's horrid when they catch birds anyway but as a chicken-keeper yourself, you must feel even worse.

 

The owners isn't protecting them, though. If your cat can get to them, then so can a fox. In fact perhaps the fox has already had the others.

 

Sadly it's the time of year - I have never found bells etc. to work. Don't think there is much you can do.

That is really sad Paola I agree the chickenkeeper is not doing a very good job. I thought M.Coons were supposed to be 'gentle giants' and not into stalkiing and killing things, yours is obviously a feisty one

What a shame.

 

As you say, the chicken keeper is not doing a very good job.

Our garden is free of flies as Bella stalks, hunts and eats them Azlan went through a stage recently of bring home rabbits He is a monster but such a lovely natured and laid back one

They may have a fox watch which would not deter cats if it is set to the right frequency. In which case they could well be very upset with no idea what is taking their pets.
