Or just a tough cat. There's a siamese stray that we've somewhat adopted who I'd put up against a coyote anyday.

I've seen her fight, she's a bad ass kitty.

Around here the coyotes live in very small tracts of woods and routinely prowl through the neighborhood at night. Small dogs and cats are definitely on the menu.

We got them in Marshfield. My cat got chowed last summer and I've seen them on the beach at sunrise.

I've been in Plymouth 11 years now and where I live I've not once seen a rabbitt. Guess thats a pretty good indicator of the coyote population.

I'm pretty sure coyotes got my old border collie a few years back. It was horrible not knowing what happened to our dog, we never found anything.

Be sure to watch your older pets and probably even your younger ones if it's mid-winter and the coyotes are hungry. Ask any vet or animal control officer, if your dog disapears there's a very good chance it was coyotes.

I floor the gas pedal everytime I see a coyote. I know they were just doing what they do, but I'm anti-yote since then. Tough to not have the thought of a best friend's last few minutes of life being spent getting ripped apart alone in the darkness tick you off.

I grew up with a male German Shepard/Irish Wolfhound mix; 140 pounds. (Wolfie) That was afraid of a 7 pound Siamese cat.
One swipe to the nose with those claws.
I live in a one family house.
25 feet at the peak.
5 miles due north of the State House.
I can see the Hancock and Prudential towers from the peak of the roof.
The coyotes go through the yards here so fast the dogs don't even see/hear/smell them.
I watched one; one morning, right out my front window.
Broad daylight.
3 dogs on one side, one on the other.
Vanished quicker than a deer.
The dogs didn't even notice.
