Bonzo77 Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Because thats what i'm having for tea if I can catch one of the little things!! 2 wood pigeons were nesting in my garden, now all thats there is a feathery mess!! It's bad enough cleaning up their mess, but cleaning up dead birds is another thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxman Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Are you sure it's cat? If the feathers have actually been chewed in half it could be fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 100% a cat, I've seen it watching the tree before. I've had to chase it off. I don't think a fox would be able to climb the tree anyway.

Tony Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 The chances of a cat climbing a tree to kill a bird are close to zero. I've been watching magpies mobbing a pair of ravens nesting in one of my trees - it they were pigeons they would have been a feathery mess down below by now. Nature's a cruel beast.

You've not met my cat evidently. He will do ANYTHING to decimate a nest. When he has a bird it's his greatest prize, and he'll growl loudly if I approach him to take it off him. He's brought actual nests home before now, makes a right mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Wallace* Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I think cats would be a bit like rabbit.My nan wouldn't buy a rabbit in the war years unless it had the fur on incase the butcher was selling a moggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert_Baehr Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Cat is 'chicken'. Particularly as in 'fried' and 'sweet and sour'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Talker Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Cats are probably Feef ..... Cow = Bovine = Beef. Cats = Feline = Feef? beef for cow, poultry for fowl, mutton for sheep and pork for pig meat, etc come from the old norman-french (if not before that) Bboeuf Porc Mouton, Poulet... (have a read at the opening chapter of Ivanhoe where two Saxon serfs are having a discussion about the language.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
