WESTFIELD
-- City police continue to ponder the mystery of the fisher cat and the
squirrel.
The fisher cat -- a relative of weasels, otters and skunks known for its fierceness -- and the rodent play the starring roles in an unusual piece of taxidermy found alongside on North Road by a passerby early last week.
“It’s pretty cool,” said Capt. Hipolito Nunez of the tableau, which police have been holding for safekeeping in their evidence room. In the piece, the fisher cat appears poised to attack the branch-clinging squirrel -- now bushy-tailed with alarm for all eternity.
