Fox in the garden?

[corcorda]

There have been little holes (fist size) dug around our flower beds and now some unidentified droppings and I was wondering if we have a fox? The droppings are partially covered next to another little hole.





I thought it might be a cat but why all the holes? Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi concorda and welcome to WAB.

I must admit cat was my first thought. Not being a cat owner I don't have much experience of this but neighbours cats in past years did similar things in my garden.

It doesn't look like fox scat to me.

Thanks Woodman. I'm not a cat person either and I was thrown by all the little holes dug around the garden. I guess cats dig holes too!

Now I have to find a trick to discourage the cat. I don't want it worrying the birds.
