Coyotes do sometimes attack small pets. Always monitor small animals under 20 pounds when they are outside. Keep cats and dogs confined to a fenced yard or run. Fences should be 6-8 feet above the soil surface to keep coyotes out of your yard. Keep small animals like rabbits in an enclosure with a top if left unattended. For pets that are kept outside, always provide a shelter that they can use to escape a predator.
