Oh please!! I do believe that a little effort in placement of feeders can go a long way towards minimizing the impact of outdoor housecats on backyard birds" I totally agree. I love cats and think it is more inhumane to keep them indoors. Our cat does everyting but sleep outside and it has never taken a bird (chipmunks are another thing), but birds- no way. I little planning (like keeping feeders away from bushes were cats can hide) and the birds will be fine... -Chris Starling ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
