I heard some serious screeching/yowling tonight and went outside to find two raccoons on the rooftop of the abandoned building and one of our feral cats in a tree.
They were probably fighting, or simply facing off.
Since no one is going to do anything about the building, I trust that the family of raccoons co-existing with the cats will be a permanent occurance.
With (3) of our ferals out for TNR, and others out for adoption, is it possible that we don't have ENOUGH cats?
Has some power balance been tipped that the raccoons won't be deterred by the number of cats?
I have no idea how to prevent future altercations. They seem to both live in that same building, and I wouldn't be surprised if this is how some of our cats got their face wounds.
The cats seem to stick together when they're around. Will this be enough to keep the raccoons away from them?
