What about the RSPCA removing them or if they're feral and causing problems getting a farmer to shoot them? Might seem cruel but ground nesting birds have enough problems without rogue moggies.

2.2 rifle does a good job or some kittykat with added flavouring

I'm no cat lover but an alternative solution would be to borrow a trap from the local Cat's Protection League branch so they could take them in. That way, man, beast and bird would be happy!

Cheers, Rob.

Note to John Hague and Graham Catley – Cats are domesticated animals and it is an offence to shoot them.

Geoff, I did say first what about the RSPCA trapping them. If they're feral then no one owns them. I understand a farmer has the right to shoot dogs if they worry sheep. Well these buggers are scoffing scarce birds by the sound of it.

Let's not get too distracted by the pets argument eh?
