Cats in the UK kill an estimated 275 million prey items a year, 55 million of these birds the rest insects, mammals and replies and amphibians, the later are all protected by law and have all experienced significant population declines. Cat are extremely good hunters and this impact is huge not only on the things they kill but also denying natural predators a food source. The vast majority of cat owners are oblivious to this, don't care or when this is pointed out to them say their cat doesn't or another bullshit excuse. The bellends next door have 4 bloody cats killing everything they can and shitting in my garden for my kids to discover. Extremely irresponsible and completely oblivious to the damage they cause.
