A few years ago my nephew and his wife were trying to adopt a kitten from the local SPCA in Costa Mesa, CA. They were asked if the kitten would be strictly an indoor cat and they said that it would be allowed to go in their yard that had a ten foot concrete wall around it. The SPCA wouldn't let them have a kitten until they agreed to not let the kitten out in the yard and told them that coyotes can jump ten foot walls!

PS: Foxes like cats and small dogs too.
