Rounded them all up and put em in a shoe box with a kitchen towel over them, figured the momma cat will come and get em. My sister, no pics, spent the weekend at my place while I went to see LSU play. Come back late Sunday, no kittens. No kitchen towel either. Next morning I'm drinking coffee and notice a strange looking object about 20 feet up in a tree, kitchen towel. Guess he needed a napkin.
Great Horned owls are even more efficient cat predator

kids seeing a yote dragging off a family pet, traumatizing
Seeing their dad make ones head explode or the guts blown out..... nope, not traumatizing at all.

We have a cat that leaves and stays gone for days at a time (I just cannot make myself have ole boy cut).

Well..... democrat (since we're assuming stupid political affiliations) odds are muffins would be gone when no one is paying attention. But hey, you raise your kids to be "traumatized" over shite if you want to, and i've raised mind to understand that shite happens.
And listen, don't call people weak that you've never met in your life. Just because you sit behind that keyboard clickity clacking away, doesn't mean you know anything about anyone on the other side. But hey, you want to grab a coffee and share life experiences... you just make sure you're mentally prepared to listen to those experiences. If not, then stick to name calling and we can both act as if we're juveniles.

Why would it be? You going to refuse to use rat traps in the garage because your kids might be upset about a dead rat?

I have seen what looks like an attempt on my cat. Small pile of owl feathers. Pretty sure they won't try her again.

kids raised in the woods aren't "traumatized" by the taking of animals, and certainly not predators. my 6 year old shot a raccoon trying to get in our coop last night. blood guts and all. if the coon wins the eggs don't get collected and his chickens die (which also wouldn't "traumatize" him in any measurable amount, but it'd affect him far more than dusting a raccoon). it is the way of life. maybe your kids are soft? do they think your shrink wrapped chicken breasts you paid a man to slaughter and package for you grew from the ground?
stick to the sports stats, chud, and stop upvoting yourself.

Sounds like "dad" needs some practice time at the range.

I've got a son who likes to fish but he wants the fish killed instantly, not just put in a cooler or live well to suffocate. I can't really fault that and I do it when we're fishing together, but I also showed him an osprey tearing into a mullet in the top of a pine tree while it's still flopping back & forth as its eaten alive. Animals don't die in their sleep in retirement homes.

he likely lives in a suburb close enough to his neighbor to pass sugar through the window from his own kitchen, and he wants to lecture others on the "traumatizing" act of predator control on an apex predator that is bold enough to show up in the open in broad daylight. it's sheer ignorance and narrow mindedness.

Good Grief....
I am 67 years old and I have never met a child over the age of 4 that did not understand the basic principle of protecting yours and those around you... Having both my parents entire family from the country where pigs were slaughtered, Squirrels were skinned, Deer were gutted and dressed, Chickens were raised to have their necks rung, plucked and prepped for dinner.. I have never met anyone at any age (male or female) that ever communicated in word or deed anything indicating that life was "traumatizing"...

We have a big owl that roams our neighborhood in LC. One night it swooped in on neighbors cat and somehow they both ended up in the garage. It looked like a scene out of a horror movie with blood splatter everywhere...however both animals lived to fight another day.

That’s a large coyote.
I’d recommend getting a jackass. They don’t play around with the coyotes. We had them on the farm growing up, after the first couple got their world fricked up by a jackass, they stopped showing up.

My kids learned a lot about loss from never learning to stop feeding the coyotes more cats.
