Do Fox Consider Cats Prey?

Thursday, March 10, 2022
posted by Jim Murphy

A few evenings ago, I was out on my deck and looked across the street and saw a fox They are common in our neighborhood.. I know that our  cat Millie is safe and secure inside the house but there are many outdoor cats that roam the neighborhood in the evenings. I immediately became a little concerned being that the fox was right near where there are a few feral cats. Are cats prey to fox? The answer is usually no. They are known to take on small mouse-like rodents such as voles and ground squirrels.  However, when prey is not sufficient, fox may hunt domestic cats. Generally, cats do not form an essential fox’s diet. As I always say, it’s always safer to keep your cats indoors especially at night.

Remember, pets are family.
