Predators jumped into my netted-pond in attempt to eat my koi

This wild cat got into the pond. Thanks goodness for the net. Koi were shielded from harm.

These cats just looked for a way to eat my koi for breakfast, circa 6am.

Glad your fish are safe, they look like kittens, but could still damage your fish. We get feral cats here, but the fox, owls etc take care of them.

put mouse traps around the edge or even sticky tape ,they will take the hint .I put mouse traps out to keep my neighbors dogs away and after a few snaps and yaps they have not come back again .I loosen the snap part so they would not loose a toe ,just bending it a tiny bit with a screw driver works ,it more or less pinches there toes ..I bought plastic ones at the dollar store .Funny to watch though .

Looks like mama cat brought her kittens and they are just exploring the diggs :razz: My cats never bother my fish in the pond. Think some fish have a knack for it and others don't want to get their little paws wet. Guess if they are wild they would fish if hungry tho.

Update... More natural predators attacks

Circa 10pm, 2 raccoons jumped into my netted-pond. They bounced around on the net as if they were on a trampoline. Again, thanks goodness for the net. My koi were shield from harm. No meals for cats nor the coons!
