Beaver Island Michigan

anyone missing a black cat on the west side..... i just saw a hawk fly right in front of me with someones kitty in its talons. i tried to get a picture when it landed but flew before i could shoot the picture. RIP KITTY

You are likely mistaken that it was a cat. Maybe a black squirrel. Raptors can not carry away an animal that weighs more than they do. Red-tailed hawks and great-horned owls average 2-3 pounds, whereas an adult cat averages 10-11 pounds.

sorry to say it was a cat it was close enough in front of me it was very indentifiable . i tried to get a picture and it flew away as soon as i started to stop it flew 10 feet in front of the car windshield lots of feral cats here it had white on it face and white underneath,,, no squirrel

Maybe... a small cat and large eagle. But, I don't think anyone wants to learn about the horrible demise of their beloved pet on the beaver island forum. It is better they don't know. What purpose does it serve? And it is not as common as the urban legends portend.

Really??? yes if someone is missing a cat it should be posted rather than sit wondering what happened to funny but what ever reason you have to complain take it some where else. not on my post. it was meant for good not bad WAKE UP!

Hey Duffy! Call Dan M. think his cats missing
IMO Id rather find out what happened to my cat than not know at all.

thank you he called me and yes it was meant to inform someone that i saw their poor kitty and keep them from wondering

Duffy, my intention was not to offend. You have my sincerest apologies

Guard: Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate?
Arthur: Not at all! They could be carried.
Guard: (indcredulous) What, a swallow, carrying a coconut?
Arthur: It could grip it by the husk!
Guard: It's not a question of where 'e grips it! It's a simple question of
weight ratios! A five-ounce bird could *not* carry a one-pound
coconut!

one of my favorite movies!!
