Yes cats will dig.I bet you caught your culprit. It doesn't take much of a hole for a cat to fit in..A cat could differently get in that sized hole you mentioned.

Mink. Dry cat food for bait in a live trap. Lost 5 or 6 pullets this summer before I finally figured it out. I was blaming an owl.

Weasels are notorious for killing for the sake of doing it. I caught 3 of them around my neighbors coop over the last 2 weeks. This right here.

Checked a game camera today and this is what showed up...... Location is only 50 yards from the chicken house, but it's tight and nothing getting in, which in my view is the secret to keeping chickens alive. Kinda neat to find out we got these. Suspected it, never seen one till now.
