It is certainly possible that it is something other than a cat/cats.
This was why I was using 'cats' (in inverted commas) and worded my
initial posting as I did. The puzzle, though, is what is it, if not a
cat?

Could it be a big grey bodied 'cat', with a black and white striped face?

Do you mean a badger? If so, I doubt that any could get into our back
garden as it would have to climb a fence or wall at least 4 feet high. I
also doubt there are any nearby.

We do at times get 'kids' in the garden, as we back onto a park, but they
usually do other types of damage, like painting graffiti or breaking
windows. Doubt they'd be interested in raking over mulch... Although I
suppose that would be about as intelligent as what they *do* get up to...
:-)

Slainte,

Jim
