Foxes

[Roughquest]

I have been told that foxes would hunt and eat a cat, I dont personally believe this to be the case, but could someone tell me if this would be true or not, would a fox kill a cat and eat it as prey?

Gavjbrown, Why would a fox kill a cat and then take the part that it wont eat, I don't know what killed the cat but my bet is it ain't no fox, I suspect that the Police are trying to put your neighbours mind at rest, what do the Police know about the habits of a fox.
I have had crossings with them on numerous occasions on countryside issue during my work as a pest controller, and believe me, a lot of them don't even know their own job and it was left to me to explain to them, the laws concerning wildlife and the countryside.
