The other day I saw a man buying 5 boxes of cat biscuits, which he said
were for feeding the birds.

I asked the BTO whether it was OK to feed birds on cat biscuits. The
response was that they couldn't find any research on the subject ;-) but
they felt that there was far more appropriate food for birds and they
wouldn't recommend it.

Just in case anyone was planning to feed their birds on cat biscuits
(well, if you can grit your paths with cat litter...)

Well this robin likes cat food... it made regular visits, and this has
gone on for several years, so I have either a very long-lived robin
visiting, or it's learnt behaviour.

Congratulations, thats a lovely picture.
I am sure robins can live for quite a few years.
I don't think they often get to die of old age, most likely to live long if
there's no cats around which clearly is not the case here!
On the other hand, a squirrel who was a good friend of mine only managed 3
years...
