Reminds me of when our cat, Domino, saw me coming mid-chomp so she gave a big gulp and the wren disapeared....2 days later we had to give her something to ease its way through her system because it got stuck and she was in pain (another 24 hours and she would have had to have surgery) and she was NOT impressed. I can still see her saucer eyes when things started moving - she barely made it to the litter box! Oddly enough, we haven't seen her chase any birds since. (although she does chatter at the ravens....from inside the sliding glass doors!)

You should really send that into some sort of photo contest. That is way too precious!

Naaa, not my cat. Just a pic that I found while surfing the net. I'm not much of a cat lover but it is a funny pic. ;D

Clark was the hunter in our family. Lewis was the fighter. I think they've both pretty much retired from their respective careers since they are heading into old age now (11yrs).

Dang, Biker do you ever feed that thing? Look at his eyes. He's just wolfed down Tweety and now he's got his peepers focused on RoadRunner!!! Do the neighborhood a favor and open up a can of Meow Mix once in awhile! LOL.

If I saw a **domestic** cat doing that - I would kill it.
I think my preference of creatures lives with birds.

Wow...was just checking the last 10 posts and saw your post Mark. Of course you're entitled to your opinion but I have to say that I'm a little shocked. You'll have to put me on your kill list because I've hunted Dove and Quail in the past and I eat Chicken, Pheasant, Turkey, etc....
But let me just say this about that....
My wife and I have 3 cats..or is it that they have us...not sure which. They are more then just pets, they are companions and we have developed a rapport with them that I think few cat owners achieve. (I know that many here have that same rapport esp. doc, KD, & a host of others..) Cats are very intelligent creatures with a fierce sense of Independence yet have assumed an equally fierce sense of responsibility and loyalty toward my wife and I. They do this because they want to not because of an instinctive need to fit into the 'pack'. They communicate needs, wants and affection on every level. Yes..I said affection. I haven't met any Mockingbirds that I can say those things about. Maybe an African Grey or 2 but......
Mark...I know you love birds...I love birds as well. My dear Grandmother taught me to love them but I understand that it is the nature of things for cats to hunt, kill and consume birds....
If you killed one of my cats for killing a bird I would be devastated. I'll admit it...it would be almost like losing a child for me and it certainly would be for my wife..(we have no children)...
Please reconsider....

Mark, that was pretty cold. I hope your love of birds isn't marred by a callous disregard for the lives of other animals.

I understand the instinct Mark. To defend the underdog or bird. I *assume* you sense of justice is that domestic cats are well fed and do not need to hunt for food, but they still have instincts. When I see nature shows where preditors are closing in on some prey, I keep wanting the camera people to intervene.
If you liked birds on your property and routinely trapped lose cats and brought them to the shelter, I could also support your choice - although any cat with ID should be returned to the owner the first time.
But the execution of a cat for doing what is natural? An animal that is likely someone's valued companion animal? I would need to ask you to restrain your inclinations. Translating your inclination into action shuuests a lack of control that might be unlawful under some local animal cruelty laws.
