What about all the people on here with barn cats? Sorry, free-roaming cats just don't bother me, and I just have a very large fenced area where my chickens "free-range" (bigger than some yards in town). Anything could have gotten that chick, I just think some people on this thread have gotten a little carried away with their comments. Shoot someone for letting a cat roam free? C'mon now people. It IS getting near to Christmas......................
