Cats are DNA driven to murder birds.
No quibble with all you fine folks who own cats. Animal aficionados are all good peeps in my book.
That said, if it gets down to cats or birds, I'll side with our feathered friends 10/10.

Our cat has yet to get a turkey.
Cats are DNA driven to murder birds.

Yep, they are genetically fine-tuned for the task. The actually usually kill birds for the sport of it. Way too many feral mats running around.
They’re also driven to not only ‘murder’ birds, but mice, moles, chipmunks, squirrels etc. Bird’s learn and don’t build nests near the house; the rest stay dumb.
a couple of yrs ago I saw a squirrel go into my bluebird house and later I saw a dead bluebird on the ground.....grrr.......
