Last week our small framed young cat moved her first batch of 2 kittens next to the house, couple days later kittens and small mother were gone, kinda big roughed up area in the flowers where a battle was, and blood stain on the sidewalk. I'm a bit disturbed about the young adult getting finished as well.
2 years ago, had a kitten left, put it in a chicken wire cage in hay barn and let mom in and out a couple times a day. One night mom was out, and whatever it is tunneled under the cage in the straw, found a weak spot in the wire, and kitten was gone. Dug out of the cage..... Hole in the wire was about the size of a big cat to squeeze through....
Only once have I seen a couple paws left, otherwise entire kittens are gone, no nothing left not fur not nothing.
I can't make sense of what critter is doing this, I hear of coyotes maybe but they don't fit the tunneling under cage deal, actually hay barn is closed enough only a cat or small raccoon fits in; hawk couldn't do the tunneling. Many other predators leave Bits and pieces, here there is nothing no evidence at all. This has been going on 5-6 years now. We have skunks, raccoons, possums, wood chucks, weasel and mink have been known to come from the ditch nearby.... Many Tom cats wander by. But nothing fits the different types of disappearances...
I need to get a game camera up, but it is always when the mom has move their kittens it seems, so hard to set up.....
Really frustrated with the young mom disappearing this past week. Hard to lose the kitties, but that mom kinda lived on the house door step, greated me every morning the past year and a half, petite long haired quiet gal liked me but didnt want to get real close......
Also lost an orange late fall kitten 2 weeks ago, it was a tad slow of a kitty, finally wandered out of the machine shed after living there all winter. Would rub its nose on my chin when I didnt shave, wanted nothing to do with me when I was clean shaven. Loved to hook. Its paws in my pants and go along for a ride.
Need a dog, but frankly at this point would be worried about a pup, and dog doesn't quite fit our lifestyle right now, wouldn't get the attention it needed......

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
