It's also posted in Bored Panda, one of my favorite sites, but I think you have to join. (It's free and a safe site I've been visiting for years. Some wonderful photog.)
Those texts were a hoot. Pretty elaborate with Photoshop and a fun script. She was convincing, The photo with the coyote sitting next to their child on the couch was priceless.

I needed a laugh so I just googled it, absolutely hilarious. I haven't laughed that hard in a very long time!

Oh, I think you're mistaken. I think some lady in the village of Charlotte had her Yorkie or a pet about that size on a leash & she didn't have a good hold on it & a I'm pretty sure a coyote that was hiding behind some bushes snatched it. I think that was only about 2 1/2 months ago. I had a coyote snatch my backpack that was sitting beside a tree where I was hunting from. I took a shot at it & missed & the coyote dropped it because it was to heavy to run away with. This report I'm talking about was in our Charlotte area news. Maybe this was a first!

What is your village? I have 2 toy poodles and I am concerned about the coyotes

Can anyone comment on whether a coyote would be able to come through the bottom screen on a lanai to snatch a pet ?

I would say yes it could easily.

I remember last winter a coyote broke through a screened lanai facing a golf course and took a cat.

I think that was just hearsay from Tal. I also heard it was a bobcat.

I think it was also conjecture/assumption on the cat owner's part. Nobody saw it happen.

I am pretty sure it happened in Bonita on the Havana course.

I agree that it did happen. But nobody witnessed it, so the predator type is not known for sure.

I was under the impression there were paw prints in the lanai.
