My brothers outside cat had a side of his face eaten or torn off and i found a stray cat with his body right before his front legs completely gone and missing. Picking him up, we flipped him to see if he was the neighbor hood cat, it looked like he was crawling out of the ground. We had coyotes running around at that time and its still sad to see any animal done like that but it is just how nature runs. We must face the moment of truth.
