We had a fun morning, woke up and saw what looked like fur all over the cat bedroom like a cat fight gone bad but on further inspection it was feathers. Oh shit cats killed a bird, I asked my wife wheres the body... its not here she says then a bird scream. Up on a curtain rod was a Robin with no tail feathers and looking a bit rough but alive and for the most part pretty good considering 3 cats had their way with it.
What do do???? I inched closer and snatched it as it screamed and its poor little heart just a pounding. It calmed after 5 sec or so as I took it outside to live or die. As I let go with an open hand he screamed and bolted like I've never seen a Robin go, up over the store and over the tops of the trees, gone....Tail feathers or no it was in high speed get me the fk out of here mode.
Cats have outdoor access 24/7 through a cat door and into their enclosures so we get things like mice, squirrels and smaller bird but a full size Robin was a prize for sure and still alive??? tough bird
