I never realized that they could climb.

the first time i seen one climb i was training a hound that i had for coyote

and he chased one up a tree :wall: that was a long time ago yes and i did get the dog

chasing the right game LOL :clapping:

I had a cat that used to hunt groundhog. He'd tree them , then go up into the tree to get the groundhog and kill it.

Thats one tough cat when i was a kid i had a corgi we would walk along the train tracks and he would fight with these

all the time

I would say that is a tree hog ..... :P

When I started hunting at 16 (20 gauge single shot Cooey ) , we were told to shoot any cats we saw in the bush . I didn't know they could kill a groundhog , but they could kill grouse , pheasants and other small animals and their young . I think most hunters today are aware of this and still shoot the cats .

I remember when i was around the same age out tracking around in the snow hunting rabbit never seen a rabbit all day then on my way home i can hear a rabbit screaming so i walked

that way and seen a cat with a rabbit well you can put the rest of the story together never liked cats after that there was a few stray cats around the area i think they helped bringing the

rabbit pop down along with hawks /coyote /
