Hadn't thought of a fox, but it's a good possibility
especially since the depressed areas are very close to a
couple of fresh vole/mole tunnel openings. If a fox wants
to dine on those little devils, it's more than ok by me. As
long as he doesn't mess with the cats or become a
vegetarian, a fox would be welcome guest. Thanks for the
help
foxes will eat cats, but they'd have to be pretty hungry...
try encouraging one of your neighbors to keep free range
chickens. that'll keep your cats safe
