Posted: 02 Jun 2010 Topic: Protecting Slow worms from cats



I have a problem with my cat, during the summer he catches several Slow Worms every week.  I have put lots of things around the garden for them to hide under but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.  I'm at a loss as to what else I can do....apart from getting rid of the cat.

Hi Suzi.

Good point and wasn't sure about that so I've been watching him this week.  Although he has caught a few in our garden it seems like he is bringing most of them back from a bit of waste ground between two houses in the next road.  

I managed to save one, it's got a few tooth holes in it but it's ok at the moment and healing quite well.  Just not sure where to let it go now.  I'm reluctant to release it nearby in case he catches it again.
