sorry to hear that.  :(
I have two cats myself ,one merely a kitten who hasn't got as much sense as his big 'sister' so we are keeping both in at night now.
I hope there was no lasting damage done.

Beautiful pics. Here in the Fens I have only ever seen two foxes, probably too  flat and open. My sister-in-law in Chislehurst Kent  has them regularly attacking her dustbins. Lorna.

the pictures are quite large, about half a meg each but you do see a lot more detail so is worth the wait even if you are on a slow connection.

I got my allotment not much more than a year after the second of our two girls finally arrived in the UK after escaping the war in Sierra Leone. One day we were walking round the site together - she was six at the time - when she came running after  me. 'Dad, there is wolf!' So I went back to look at the wolf. It turned out to be a vixen sitting a few yards from the lane, just looking at us.

Lovely photos Diesel, a real little darling  :)
Must say I was all for the hunting ban, but unfortunately it will never be properly enforced.  :'(
