I know this is a joke, but for real outdoor domesticated cats kill 1.3-4 billion songbirds a year… and most of those cats are being fed by humans.
They really do need to stop working so hard, and humans really need to start thinking about the ethics of letting their cat out to slaughter the wildlife around their home for no reason.
I keep finding dead things in my yard because of this. There are at least 3 "neighborhood cats" that someone lets run wild. They're definitely fed, groomed and collared, they have somewhere to go at night. Do you know of any techniques to reduce the impact short of just letting them come into my house during the day?
Steal the cats. Indoor cats live longer and don't murder birbs.
that would condemn my rats to a lifetime of constant terror
Maybe not. The bars on our cage are too small for cats to actually get at the rats, and they don't try. The rats are unbothered by cats being around. Obviously we close the bedroom off when it's ratty playtime.
