And while we’re talking about cats:

“Dear PoP,

Thought this might be of interest for your readers. It’s a study from the American Bird Conservency that was done in the DC suburbs.
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/21/science/21birds.html?ref=us
http://www.abcbirds.org/newsandreports/releases/110314.html
It shows that cats are the #1 killer of grey catbirds. It’s important to note that this particular bird species not particularly rare or in any way endangered – http://www.iucnredlist.org/apps/redlist/details/147687/0

But cats do not discriminate.  If they’re killing catbirds, it means they’re killing other birds, including other native birds and some rare ones too.  That’s the motivation behind the Cats Indoors campaign – http://www.abcbirds.org/abcprograms/policy/cats/index.html

I happened to be at a cookout friday night at a friend’s on Spring Rd. between 10th and Rock Creek Church Roads.  A car with Maryland tags pulled up in the alley and the driver filled bowls for the strays in the alley.  My friends said that the cat food is a boon for rats.  There certanly were a lot of cats in the alley too.  I doubt that those particular cats kill many threatened or endangered birds but what do folks think about people feeding strays, particularly people from out of the neighborhood? Personally, I would be livid if this were my alley.”

“Attached is a picture of my adorable rescue, a red-nose pitbull that seduces everyone she meets. Her name is Nyla – which then leads to Nyla-bone (the dog toy company), which then leads to Nyla-bonez, which has lead to Nyla-bunz, and then straight out Bunz.

Anyway, all that to say that this photo is captioned “Bunz and Bananaz” – (bananaz for obvious reasons, I think).”
