Cat-owners just won't be stopped unless laws are introduced. Until then, what can we do to protect our feathered friends from the rabid feline killers?

Do you consider yourself to belong to the majority of cat owners with a catio?

    I do not consider myself to be anything other than a cat owner with a catio. I do try to spread the word about how this is a superior way to keep both cats and wildlife safe, however.

    That answers the question quite well: most cat owners don't own a catio. Given the statistic somebody else posted (more than 2billion dead birds in North America due to cats alone), you are in the vanishingly small minority. You might be aware and willing to do something but the rest won't listen to reason, hence the question about what people can do.
