Wild birds
Recently, Jayne uttered:
Cat's killing birds is somewhat avoidable. I have 2 cats - they both wear collars with bells & are kept in at night. Apparently most birds are killed by cats at dawn & dusk, so if the cats are inside during that time they are less likely to catch them. Mice, however are a different story - if it wasn't for the cats we'd be over run. "Essjay001" wrote in message ... Just so all the cat lovers know, cats a responsible for 55 MILLION wild bird deaths per year according to the TV last night. I agree, 100%. Having been forced to live on the edge of a notoriously badly designed and run council estate, we were overrun with mice and rats at first. Our cats are a godsend, and keep them at bay. Without them, we would be suffering who knows what damage and disease ( that is not to say I agree with killing mice and rats, but they are part of the felines natural prey ). The damage a few mice & rats can do in a small garden is unimaginable unless you have seen it.... We now live with a garden that has a six foot fence all around it, and it's heaven - we can shut out the rest of the world and relax in peace thanks to our felines ! -- \\(º`¿´º)// It's all on http://support.microsoft.com/ somewhere....
