Here's some eye popping stats

Do Feral Cats Kill 2.4 Billion Birds Each year? - Texas Fish & Game Magazine

A new open access study by leading scientists rebuts unfounded criticisms and reaffirms the need for effective outdoor cat control. According to researchers, coordinated critics have mounted a “misinformation campaign designed to purposefully fabricate doubt regarding the harmful impacts of outdoor and feral cats and stymie policies that would remove outdoor cats from the landscape.”

The conflict stems from a groundbreaking study published in 2013 by scientists from the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. That study evaluated the combined impact of the tens of millions of outdoor cats in the United States. The authors found that roaming outdoor cats kill approximately 2.4 billion birds every year and are the leading source of direct, human-caused mortality to birds in the country. Similar results have since been confirmed in Canada and Australia.
What does that have to do with the price of fish?

Our two ferals have NEVER brought home any "gifts". Our two ferals have never been
observed stalking - much less catching - any other wildlife.

Still, not the subject. Why would you come here (from "elsewhere") to post that?
Let me take a WILD guess. ONLY to stir up ...., that's why.

See, I'll call it as I see it.

true, but it's the gang in here that keeps the thread going and making one of us upset just for the heck of it kind of puts an end to the welcome mat
Which is why I never "welcomed" the person-in-question a couple weeks ago.

The intent was obvious then, even MORE obviuous today.

I :rolleyes: then, but said nothing. There you go. I did not want to bring "there" here.

I'll let this play out. :) Intent proven, though.

Different neighborhood, different rules.

Tread lightly!

(And, where there is a toilet, I will defecate. That's the purpose of a latrine. I do not see one here.)

You have piss poor attitude, probably been babied too much in your life.
