Alt TextFour panel cartoon by Nathan W. Pyle with two bald eagles sitting in easy chairs. One is reading a newspaper while the other sips tea.

Tea-sipper: Do you think the Owl is a predator?

Reader: Of course not. He's never bothered me.

Tea-sipper: Exactly. (Pauses to sip tea) I don't know what Mr. Mouse was going on about.

I feel this comic would land better if the conversation was happening between a different prey animal but not one that is preyed on by owls. A deer for example.

Eagles are also predators that would eat a mouse - so it doesn’t make a lot of sense in my mind, just my opinion though.
