Default Pond - fish - cats

A hot humid thundery night might kill the lot if it's a pond full of
(de)oxygenating plants!


Interesting. How does that work?


Unless you are very unlucky a cat is not going to be your problem.


I think mink will take fish too.


All our cats take fish but are very considerate and only take large ones!,
as the gold fish breed at an alarming rate its quite a useful population
control measure. down here its otters that are the main problem (never
thought I would live long enough to here people complain there are too
many
otters :~))


Charlie, that's interesting, do they kill and eat them or just bring them to
you alive just to prove how clever they are? The only cat I know that was a
good fish catcher used to do the latter.
