What do you think this is?

[HoglundH]

My cat caught and killed this. It was only about six inches long. Male I think?

That's a weasel and your cat deserves a special meal for ending it's life.

Yup, weasel. I've never seen one in the wild....... but I have 2 in my hallway........ ferrets that is.......

amazing how much they look alike!

Good for your cat! They can be pretty feisty little critters.

 

[stellacat]

Yup, it's a weasel. Wow! Go kitty!

Is that him\\her in your avatar photo?

You better be on guard in case there are more around. My sister had a weasel kill over 20 of her chickens last spring.
Your cat truly is a chicken hero. Did you check him (the cat) for bites or injuries? Weasels are nasty.

That is not a weasel,it's a stoat.Same family though,stoats are alot smaller than weasels,but they are just as deadly.
