Ernestina was...

...doing dishes, looking out the window. She seen Daisy, our Blue Nose Pitbull, walk by with something in her mouth. It was a dead cat. Earlier in the morning I saw the 4 of them in pursuit of something...Heard a bit of a "disagreement" between the 4 of them but by the time I got to the door it was over...don't know which pup killed it...
Have a boat load of feral cats in our area. Make matters worse our neighbor behind us feeds them. Being in a rural area we seem to be a "dumping ground" for unwanted pets. A month or so ago a neighbor had an Akita show up on their game camera. We have no animal control in Stevens County. Neighbor tried to catch it, got bit for troubles. Taylor put some food for it....got bit a second time. Dog lunged at her from 6 feet away both times. Dog was tearing at another neighbors fence...trying to get at their goats. Nothing a .223 round wouldn't cure...

Suppose I am the problem here as well....
