They certainly forage for themselves during the slug season and only in the last few weeks have accepted the peanuts thrown for them at breakfast. I didn't know they ate meat at all until I saw the late Clementine devouring, with prehistoric relish, a morsel of rodent left for her by the cats (as if). Horror movie stuff in miniature. You will need something in the way of tree for them to sleep in (didn't know that either). We have the occasional polecat in the country but are not troubled by fox or badger.
