Possums and cats

A bit of a horror story here...... a
friends cat use to be so proud of its domination over the local possums
during the night, that it left the heads of its victims on the front door
step in the morning!

It use to be fairly unscathed from the
incidents too.....it just goes to so how efficient a hunter cats are, even
against nocturnal creatures of equal size!

Subject	[BIRDING-AUS] Possums and cats

Hi all

My daughter-in-law, who lives in inner suburban Melbourne, is stressed
out 
with possums [mainly brushies and some ringtails] pooing on her patio etc.

She had now gone out and purchased 2 cats as she was told they would deter
possums.  As I have never heard this theory before I wondered if anybody
else had.

I am stressed out thinking about what the cats will do to the birds and
other wildlife in 
the area!  

Cheers
