We live about 55 miles northwest of Beaumont. We have woods on two sides of our 6 acres. The Big Thicket National Preserve is all around here. People have been spotting cougars lately too. We can hear the coyotes in the woods. At one time we had lots of cats we would put food out for but now we only see two. My husband loved having the cats around because they really helped with the snake problem we had when we moved here about 9 1/2 years ago. One of the cats had been with us for 9 years, after someone dropped her off. She was a wild thing but eventually she started letting us pet her. She has come up missing too along with another half dozen cats.
Here is a picture I took of what is think is a young coyote. I thought is was a fox but my husband said it was a coyote. I always put food out on the sidewalk for the cats and I looked out my kitchen window and saw this pretty thing eating. I am a critter lover and I enjoy standing by the window and watching the different critters eat. At times we would have raccoons, possums and skunks all coming up to eat. I can do without the skunks. It drives the dogs nuts when they smell them.
