"You are getting sleepy, very sleepy." |
University of Georgia researchers were sitting around wondering what kitties do all day or night outside while their human guardians are off earning money to buy their food. So, being researchers, they strapped miniature cameras provided by National Geographic Society on sixty volunteer "fuzzkins" to find out. The results show a lot of wildlife casualties which is not shocking since cats are supreme hunters that never give up their instinct regardless of how caring their humans are. 30% of the study subjects killed an average 2.1 animals per week! These cats are pets with owners who presumably feed them regularly. A University of Nebraska study found that feral cats are responsible for the extinction of 33 bird species worldwide. For those of you who
can't take direction, just like
Felis catus, US Person offers for your consideration
this link that shows the crime scene photos and videos of "itty kitty" in action from ground level. Plenty of interesting, non-violent results to see, particularly the Chex snack video. Please remember to supervise your feline hunter when outside like
US Person does (we are proudly a no-kill household), or get "kitteh" a bell.
