At least with a Jack Russell you know they have murder on their minds, as they present you with dead rodents at every opportunity. BUT they are dead and the dog is off looking for more victims. Cats are cute cuddly sadists.

I would normally laugh at comic style pictures etc BUTon reading through this is a serious topic.
I moved up the coast to enjoy watching the bird life, 15 species of birds visit the yard throughout the year, not to supply a smorgasbord for the cat. This why we built a 14m cat enclosure adjoining the house to stop our cat from escaping and killing the local wildlife.
Google search 3 words - csiro studies cats - and read what domestic and feral cats do for the environment.

I can safely say that all 5, YES 5, of my cats are not murderers! Unless you count flies.

But could you safely say they wouldn't kill a couple of your birds if given half a chance?
On another note these are brilliant

Oh brooksy, they probably would.
But I am pretty strict on not letting them out of the house, so yeah.
