I did say feral cat ie this was not a domestic 'pussie'. Feral cats and dogs have definetly been around as long as foxes. Neither am I anti foxes infact hand reared a cub a few years ago and I have seen cats playing in the garden with foxes. This brings me onto my next point which is that both cats and foxes are predators and therefore both eat rodents and birds and up until recently not each other. Dragonfly
