Title: Letting the Cat out...
Post by: Hern on September 11, 2017, 05:57:00 AM
Our Cat goes outside every day. I usually let her out before sun up. I always scan the backyard with Red Lens, Carnivore 5. This morning I saw two sets of eyes way in the backyard. We have a mated pair of Greys that hang around. I made kissing sounds on the back of my hand and Here they Come. Female came straight in while the Male veered to the right. I had to stop the Female before she came into the back door. Our Cat was lying on the patio, watching. Female stopped 7 yards, Male stopped 35 yards. I stepped outside and spooked them away. Our Cat chased the Female Grey into cover and out of sight.
*While I was typing this, I stopped about the 4th or 5th sentence and scanned the backyard for our Cat. The pair of Greys are back in the middle of the yard and I once again 'kissed' them into close range. This cool weather (42 degrees) and fur running around can fire a man up...lol.

Distemper wiped 'em out around here, several years ago. Coon rebounded, but it took Greys longer. Been watching this pair for a year or two. We haven't seen their pups yet. I like the Grey's color. Red, Orange, White, Black, Salt & Pepper. But I like a December Red Fox (on snow) too.
