Props for bird lives. It's amazing how many people don't realise cats kill for sport, and unlike a dog for example, can't be trained not to do so.

Rats ravage bird nests also, is not a simple equation.

Where do you live that the coyotes don't get the cats before they kill all the birds?

Swarming with them here in London. Can't move for the things.

Pretty much everywhere I lived people would have their cats outside and do fine. They only got caught by the coyotes when young, old, or unlucky. So in the mean time they're killing birds. Either way, keep them inside anyways.
