Paul We can have from 6-10 black and or grey squirrels in our yard at any given. Liz feeds them. They don't seem to bother our tomatoes at all. > These are just plain ol' bushy tail gray tree rats.

We have three cats, one of which is an outdoor cat, Norman. She will go after the birds, mice, moles etc, but just sits there and watches the squirrels. I have pictures of her and a squirrel 3-5 feet away, just looking at each other. On occasion she will make a feeble attempt to chase one, but not very fast or very long. She's eleven which could have some bearing.?? Just remember, there is no such thing as a squirrel proof bird feeder.
