I put it in a small box for several hours, where it appeared to recover, but studies have shown that internal injuries from a strike usually kill the bird. FLAP is the Fatal Light Awareness Program, located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and this is how they raise awareness. The more glass, the more bird kills. ©2012 Donna L.

There is a cat curfew for domestic animals in some states and a cull has been instigated to try to reduce the number of feral felines, currently estimated at 2 million. Keep the feeders above 6 feet where possible and away from any raised surfaces which the cats may use as a launch pad.

I once knew a guy who kept and raised cats. I find it astonishing that people argue of whether feral cats are bad for birds in North America. This almost certainly can be argued to be true just on the basis of logic, because feral Cats are proficient hunters and are entirely out of ecological place. Unless we put them there.

I have never been one to advocate the needless killing of animals for whatever purpose. Consider the following quote, &# Falconry involves the use of birds of prey to kill other birds and animals for sport. In the case of fox hunting (a true bloodsport), dogs are domesticated animals that are killing, not for food, but for sport.

Sadly it had recently been killed and was lying in the garden bed beside the path. All indications are that it was a feral or domestic cat that had caused its demise. We were grateful that we had found the Fairy Pitta while it was still only freshly killed and it will be going to the Western Australia Museum as a specimen.
