It really chapped his hide...
@YouInMyEye
Holy shit. Kitten’s reaction, s l o w l y fade away from that thing.
@YouInMyEye Damn! I can't even imagine what that kitten must have been thinking!
@YouInMyEye I lost a cat to a Golden Eagle. The cat was 15 years old and started sleeping in full view. The Eagles around here are very large.
Wow... I bet that was a traumatic experience... I can't imagine...
@YouInMyEye Yes it was once I figured out what happened. I heard the sound of it's wings through the window but did not understand what the sound was. The cat completely disappeared that day.
That's like losing a family member to an eagle... 😢
Friend of mine's elderly chihuahua was picked up by an owl but dropped... poor tiny lady had a concussion and broken leg, but survived. If they hadn't found her, they would've never known what happened.

Not infrequent
While I was talking to a neighborhood bunny, suddenly it jumped and was ready to take off. Lo and behold there was a giant hawk swooping down then it saw me so it flew away. I was contemplating whether I should let nature be nature or intervene.... I came to conclusion that I would have jumped to save the bunny since I was talking to him, it was my buddy under my care.
@YouInMyEye @tyghebright @Dane
Which also distracted bunny from hawk.
YES... I'm afraid so. But I like to talk to them... well since I don't have anyone else to whine to...
@YouInMyEye @tyghebright @Dane
I have one 🐰 too. Put out strawberry tops for him yesterday.
oh😳 how dreadful to see that happening.
@holon42 TG I didn't see it, only heard the wings.
oh yeah. i know the sound. cooper's around here occasionally hunt in my garden.
wow, disappointed hawk🫣
@YouInMyEye
Wow. 😮
How hungry is that thing to keep trying like that? Or to try it at all!?
