My wife is having a problem with something getting after her cats. A couple weeks ago she found a small cat in the end of a hollow log, its hind leg was damaged. The cat survived. Today her biggest cat was found dead, its hind leg was damaged and its face was chewed on. This cat was found inside the barn. I am thinking it might be a Fisher, what do you folks think?


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

I know coons can be rough on kittens and small cats. I don't know if they'd go after large cats.


Eh...wot?

Cats make great fisher bait …. They don’t walk past an easy meal ….

Not sure about fisher but coons will take on any cat regardless of size. If you are feeding cats someplace the coon will be there too and will kill any cat that gets in the way to that feed bowl of the cats.


Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime
