NIGEL did it again!! **GRAPHIC PICS**

[Rare Feathers Farm]

When I went outside this morning, I found this next to the back door step. It has puncture holes around it's neck. Hank was locked in the house and Cash would have done a lot more damage to it, I'm sure...so that leaves Nigel, my trusty outside-kitty! This makes number TWO (that I know of!)

I'm so glad he got it before it got my chickens!

The dogs checking it out....

Hank sniffing it--and boy it is stinky! I've never smelled one before...but they must have a musk?

It's good when you have a couple of predators working FOR you!

Good Kitty!!! Another predator down for the count and chickens safe for another day!

Yeah, the dogs are awesome...and the cats earn their keep! LOL Nigel does get birds but mostly pests...starlings, brewer's blackbirds, english sparrows...all things that transmit disease & mites!

He also gets snakes, quail & once I took a bunny away from him, too. He gets LOTS of mice and even the occasional pack rat.

He got some "juice" from a can of tuna poured over his regular food today! LOL As a treat! And lots of pets!

Long Tailed Weasel, I believe. They're found (although not always commonly) in almost all of the United States, if that's where you live.
