I have a relative that pampours their cat, they don`t feed birds btw as the garden isn`t large enough and its mainly concrete and flag stones.

They had a spell where the cat has been bringing back rabbits and birds from fields near by, this cat doesn`t go hungry, its the opposite as it gets all its daily meals + treats.

I accept that some owners don`t look after their cats the way they should and they probably go hungry and are forced to hunt, the area we live in is a fairly decent area, its not posh by any means but i wouldn`t expect anyone that lives round here wouldn`t feed their pet.

This cat that we have problems with is probably over spoilt and can get away with anything it wants, i wouldn`t mind guessing that its brought birds back to where it lives and its owners have gone "awwww look at you, catching the birdies" instead of telling the little critter off.

This cat is out at all hours so it will have access to a cat flap 24/7, in my opinion a cat owner should NOT let a cat have access to getting outside after a certain time, ive heard cats in the past fighting at 2am and another cat making that baby crying noise right under the bedroom window.

Cat owners should have certain responsibilities, like i said above i bet most go "awwww look at you" when a cat brings back some wildlife its killed because they don`t want to shout at what they think is their cute little puddy cat, they are killing machines if you let them get away with murder.

You see hardly any with bells on their collars either, i bet the majority of cats don`t have them as ive never heard jangle jangle once from a cat bell.
