Whatever else you may think that last paragraph is simply crap. The main reason there are not many birds around anymore is because of the state that people now keep their gardens in, all nicely trimmed lawns, decking and no wild areas any more. Add to that our caring 'guardians' of the countryside who will grubb any hedgerow given a quarter of a chance let alone half of one and you'll be closer to the truth. Young sparrows and the like are starving because there are no more grubs for them to be fed on and they cannot survive on seeds, unlike adult birds.

I have several cats and there is never a day passes in my garden that I don't have one or all of the following ...

Sparrowhawk, sparrows, robins, blackbirds, tits, starlings, kestrels, the occasional heron and even, rarely, red kites overhead.

Never once have any of the cats I have managed to disturb a bird, let alone kill one. I keep an area of my garden overgrown and the wildlife thrives. And I live in Reading midway between the town centre and the mad stad in a built up area.


Edit to add - I hope the **** drops a bar of soap in the shower and once he's been taken he's left to die in his own vomit.

So how do you stop your cats killing birds then? Come on, tell us.

One of the most efficient ways of stopping cats killing birds is actually to encourage birds into your garden by feeding them. If you get and maintain a good population of birds then they act as their own early warning system and the cats rarely if ever get close enough to them to catch them. Add in things l,ike hawthorn trees/bushes for the birds to nest in and generally they're safe.

edit to add.

I regularly have upwards of 20 sparrows in my garden, I've more than once counted over 30, as well as upwards of 30 starlings. Add in the hedgehogs, newts, frogs and toads as well as slow-worms and occasional fox and it's not hard to look after wildlife.

There's difference between a bird getting caught by a cat and a person taunting his dog with a cat and then letting it kill the cat FFS.

Or stick a bell on the cat's collar. Some people feel it's wrong to do this, cos it affects their hunting ability, but I've only had one bird in the house since putting them on my four.

20 year ban? He should be banned for life. Not only is it deeply cruel to the cat (obviously), dogs can be very volatile creatures and he has given this one a taste for blood and violence.

Unfortunately Chappers some of our bretheren don't realise that cats are animals. They think that animals should have the same values as we humans are supposed to. As far as it goes whilst a cat may attack a bird that's quite natural act for it. Whereas, a human to dangle a cat in front of a dogs is anything but natural.

Did you know that cat wailing you can sometimes hear at night isn't usually cats fighting, its actually them doing the sex. The male cat has barbs in his cock which enable him to lock into the female thus resulting in much screaming especially as his member is removed.

Or so I have been told.

Yes. I did know that, but didn't need reminding.

I dont know if its true, but there is supposedly an old by-law around here which states that it's within your rights to kill a cat provided you return its pelt to its owner
