Don't worry, I got it
It wasn't an "Ahem, excuse me!" post.
I just wanted to be trendy for once..
Although in Diz's defence he has only ever caught one bird.
And that was after Mia took a swipe at it; confused, it hit the patio windows. Diz lunged for it and carried it upstairs.
He gave it up quite easily and I set it free. It may have died later from shock, but it was unharmed enough to fly away immediately.
When we are out in the garden together (me reading, him dozing) birds will often land on the lawn. What does the mighty hunter do? Start yowling as if another cat has entered his territory. "You tell them Diz" I say, "Make those dirty birdies flt away!" And unsurprisingly, they do.
When my ship comes in I will have a good sized place with room for a cat tree, and empty shelves in optimum places for jumping and watching and dozing in later afternoon sunlight. And he will not go outside again as he has shown no particular pleasure in it. That's my weird news for the day.
