    More like “today someone left food out for me as usual so I didn’t hunt like I would if I were starving”.

    70% of bird deaths are from fetal and stray cats, not just “outdoor” cats.

      30% of bird deaths is still a lot of bird deaths. I would much prefer if cats were only responsible for 40 small animal extinctions rather than the 60 or so that they’ve caused so far

        Not to mention a lot of those “strays” are just the offspring of someone’s unneutered outdoor cat.
