martin 332 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 A friend sent me these pics of a VERY BIG tom cat that was running with this dog fox for a month or more(seen by the farmer and my friend)they were eventually trapped 'together' as he doesn't have a rifle to do the job,and duly sorted,but my question to all is....have you ever heard of a fox running with a feral cat before? I guess they must of been sharing kills,and it seems they were very happy to be around each other as they must of entered the trap together......weird!! In the trap,and as you can see the cat is still alive at this point..... Put together to show how big this Tom really was...... This pic was taken by the farmer before it took both lambs(out of sight of the farmer)and he was shot later,they are brazen as feck when they need to feed young! Martin Quote Link to post

nod 285 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 not saying its not true but i find it hard to believe, why wasnt the pic taken before the fox was shot, i might have believed it then, never heard of it if it is Quote Link to post
martin 332 Posted April 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 I can assure you that it is true,although if it hadn't been told to me by the person that did I'm not sure I would of believed it so you are not alone there. Martin Quote Link to post

foxdropper 17,092 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Big cat that mate and story which is hard to take in ,but i know nothing is clear cut in nature and knowing you well i take it as gospel .See you soon mate for a look out .Edited to say that cat looks very comfortable with the fox even near it ,not something that ive seen before as they are arch enemies normally ,even more so than fox and dog ,the two coming in contact more i guess .
