Chatting to the neighbours over the fence last night at horse feeding time. They have a new cat who is currently sorting out with our cats where he might be permitted to wander. They are doing the territory divide up fairly amiably with more glaring than fighting so will no doubt sort it out soon.
New neighbourhood cat is apparently a hunter extrodinaire who spent a great deal of yesterday guarding a rabbit hole and pouncing on anything that emerged from it. Neighbour said puddy had had four rabbits yesterday.... or it might have only been two as it is possible he caught the same one three times....
Being unwilling to kill a poor defenseless rabbit he spent the afternoon rescuing the bunny from the clutches of the cat and returning it to the rabbit hole.....

Ha,sounds like a person after my own heart!
This reminds me of the time Wayne (hunter extraodinaire) came home with a baby (wild) bunny he'd found down the back of the farm. Karl: Yes, it's cute; no, we aren't keeping it.
Wayne: Awww...?
Karl: We used to go rabbit hunting, remember? And fed our cats that way, remember? How long do you think Cutesy Bunny is going to last when our cats make the connection?
Wayne: Oh...
We let it go. A long way away.. (and felt like idiots no matter what we'd decided).
