It's nice to see someone thinking outside of the (sheep kill everything) box. Personally I have seen both mongoose and feral cats at around a 9,000 foot elevation. Although I have read that they can live up to 10,000 feet? Have to double check that one. I'm speaking on info taken from this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Mammals-Hawaii-Notational-Bibliography-Publication/dp/0930897102/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1317977079&sr=8-1
It's great you can pick up a used copy for around $5 on Amazon. This book has many true facts about the history of mammals introduced to Hawaii. I find it interesting in how information posted by people who are against the sheep varies greatly when compared to facts taken from this book.
