I am so sick of the feral cat colonies that infest so many locations that I like to bird. And while I am sick of the cat colonies I am even more sick of the deluded people who believe that by feeding feral cats they are somehow helping them. Outdoor cats live short, ugly, violent lives. Keep your cat indoors.

Long story short my cat was knocked down and killed outside my house last Saturday (29th) but on the 20th I text my mum to say she was acting weird. Moral of the story, do you reckon it was a coincidence or can cats decide when they want to go?

In the UK, so figures indicate , 10 million domestic cats account for 275 million prey items, of which 55 million are birds. In Australia where the endemic prey population has evolved without cats, the problem has reached the stage where drastic measures have been imposed. Cats rely on stealth to ambush their prey.

For instance, assume (and I will NOT stand by this number, it is just one I’ve heard here and there) that kitty cats in America kill 50,000,000 birds a year. Hardly any Sandhill Cranes are killed by domestic (including ferrel domestic) cats. In fact, there are certainly a few cats killed by hawks every year.

Another product has been invented that could cut down on the number of wild birds killed by domestic cats. Bells don’t work; cat bibs sometimes do, but cat owners rarely use them – saying they’re “too restrictive.” The same cannot be said about Birdsbesafe, which allows the cat as much movement as it wants.
