Cat owners often tell of a dead bird, mouse, or lizard "present" left on the welcome mat or, worse, on the living room rug. Domestic cats have been estimated to kill more than a billion small mammals and hundreds of millions of birds each year. Although the death toll is staggering, it is not surprising when you consider that there are 40 million pet cats allowed to roam free, and millions of additional stray cats.

Exactly... Death to the feral cat.
I'm a cat lover, if I could I'd have 4 cats as pets, but they are vicious. My last cat used to sneak out at night through my open window and bring me back birds and lizards, I could care less about the lizards, but when my cat's killing the canaries I fed from my bird feeder I had a big problem.
