Greater roadrunners live year-round in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona, and southern California. They can be seen in deserts, brush, and grasslands on the ground or sitting on low perches, such as fences. Predators of roadrunners are raccoons, hawks, and, of course, coyotes.

Even though they spend most of their time on the ground, roadrunners build their nests three or more feet off the ground in a nearby plant like a cactus. The male roadrunner will defend his territory by sitting on a high plant and making “coo” sounds.

While these birds may be named for roads, they will run along a wide variety of natural pathways as they patrol their territory and chase away intruders. Roadrunners will use gullies, dry streambeds, and other paths as they patrol and hunt.

No, research shows that it is unlikely that cats will fight to the death, however, the injuries received by cats that have been fighting can be profoundly serious and result in bad infections. So are the reasons around why cats fight, especially if you are a cat owner with two cats that attack each other.

Cats can kill each other in fights, but it’s not the regular outcome for these engagements. In most cases, the cats will vocally posture and separate before they decide to break out into a full-on catfight. However, it’s not outside the realm of possibility that one cat could kill the other.

Generally speaking, domestic/feral cats do not kill kittens. They will simply avoid them altogether or react unfavorably by hissing and growling to alert the kitten it is not welcome to come any closer. However, when a male lion takes over a pride, he does kill all the existing cubs fathered by the previous male lion.

So you must start by introducing the cats to each other by “swapping “scent.

1. Place your new cat’s towel on or near your resident cat’s favourite place and encourage him to approach.
2. If your cat starts to hiss, spit or avoid the towel place it on the floor away from his bed or food bowl.
