I had written on another post how good my cats were with My pullets...well last week my 5 week old blue maran had squeezed under the gate? while I was gone all day, as always when I got home I went out to see the girls...counted heads and she was missing, finally found her next the fence dead looked like one of the cats had got her. Didn't eat her, I'm sure her trying to find a way back in proved too enticing for one of the felines
so I don't take it for granted any more that the cats look at the chickens as family.
