Amazondoc, I think with your professional background you will be qualified to answer this...I noticed in one of the articles we've been discussing it stated Raccoons spread worms (roundworms?) in their feces and it was a potential problem for Woodrats.

I've always felt that domestic and wild feral cats were serious disease/parasite vectors (in their feces and through their fleas).

My point being, isn't the spread of pathogens by cats as serious an issue as predation for the Woodrats? Same as with the Raccoons.

Thanks,
jsc
