According to Tami, fishers do NOT eat cats -- they just kill them.
Needless to say, Sabine is never going out again. (Actually, we haven't let her out since last fall when she got locked in a neighbor's cellar for about 5 days.)
We'd already decided after Rufus' first winter with us that he was going to be a forever inside cat -- he's waaaaaay too curious about absolutely everything. He'd get distracted, lost, probably et (oooh, what's this? Great horned owl? I'm going for a riiiiide!)
Sabine is a savvy mature lady cat and a great huntress, but we've never seen r heard of fishers on this side of the road or around the house.
The bats, Sinsull, I think were run off by the flying squirrels. Or maybe the flying squirrels were run off by the bats. Anywho, I don't think either species are mootching off us anymore.
I'm not sure about the gray squirrel in the window, though...
