When he was not much bigger than this we had to stop his outside trips with us as he got so rambunctious jumping and climbing:

Oh, that's a precious kitty!
Watch your local news for any word of coyote, racoon or opossum sightings. Cats and dogs as large as beagles are favorite meals for coyotes. Raccoons carry rabies and opossum are ferocious when defending turf or babies.
Cats are smart but coyotes work in pairs and sadly have outwitted and dined on some of the smartest, most ferocious pet cats and dogs in our area for years.
When local authorities warn people not to feed coyotes, with the exception of a few crazy people who left dog food out for the coyotes, Wildlife Control officials are asking people to keep their pet dogs and cats inside, and to walk their dogs only on a leash.
