Last weekend we observed kittens emerging from beneath the granary lean-to porch. It would appear that mama cat decided to take up residence in a den at that location to birth her brood. I suppose the good news is there aren't bunnies living under there; or worse yet, a groundhog. But now we've got cats to deal with. And somehow remove.
Coincidentally, on Saturday we ran the trail camera trapline and uploaded a batch of new images including a spike in cat photos. Colloquially called ditch tigers.
Roaming cats are bad news for wildlife; particularly ground-nesting birds. These animals are higher order predators of small prey that play an important roll in the natural world's food web.
What to do. What to do...
