Gray Fox Predating Outdoor Cats: Trap or Electronic Deterrent

Raccoons Also Kill Cats; Electronic Deterrent Protects

Raccoons are sneaky cat predators. If trap catches raccoon, euthanize. Electronic deterrent (nightpests.com) repels both fox and raccoon. Remove food/water at night. Don’t leave cats out unsupervised.
