Default Talking of cats ....

We both think it highly unlikely that a cat would attack a hedgehog and
get the better of it. Has anyone here ever come across a hedgehog which
is the worse for wear as a result of cat attack?

But certainly cats are very useful for keeping down the rodent
population in our garden.

I have seen a hedgehog being "pawed" by a cat. It just rolled up and
waited for the cat to get fed up of being impaled.

OTOH I my aunties Jack Russell terrier killed a hedgehog.
