The squirrels freak out whenever my cat is outside and I’m sure he’d love to catch one of them, but my feline is simply way too fat for that to be possible. So, he just sits there and stares at them while they make “danger” noises. For some reason, one of the squirrels sounds way more concerned than any of the others. I don’t like feeding wildlife, but whenever that high-anxiety squirrel is out there alone, I give him a couple unsalted peanuts as an apology for having to put up with my cat.
I do the same with the chipmunks my cat brings me.
If this isn’t a joke, keep your cat indoors. It’s a danger to your local ecosystem. Cats don’t belong outside.

Chipmunks get indoors occasionally in the middle of nowhere.
