Good morning CoSo ☕️ 🌤️ I saw a fox on the driveway cam this AM. I've never seen a fox in the yard the entire time I've lived here 🤔

I occasionally see a fox in the yard if sensors turn on the light. The outdoors cats aren't in the least bit bothered by them.
@Priestess That is adorable! Quite a menagerie you have going by!

For a few years, after my neighbor died, I was taking care of 8 feral cats. I trapped them all and got them neutered. Most of them disappeared when 74 acres of forest adjacent to my back yard were destroyed and developed into an industrial "park". I only see 3 of them nowadays. I never saw coyotes until their habitat was destroyed. At about the time when coyotes were spotted, cats started disappearing. Such is the nature of nature. I think 2 cats were taken in by new neighbors.
@Priestess Wondeful that you did that. Awful the forest was razed. Heartbreaking. Cats as coyote food makes sense 😖 Thanks for sharing all this!
@gemswinc Princess Goldeneyes hangs around many hours of the day. She stays up on the rail of the deck when the fox shows up, and they don't interact. The opossum is a more frequent visitor. Princess isn't at all bothered by Opey and vice-versa. If she's in the chair or on the deck she just stays there. The bigger animals like the racoon, dogs, and coyote don't show up as much, or I don't see them at 3am unless I see the light go on. She can go into her hotel (below)if they do.
