So my mum has been looking after our cat while I've been moving house and doing my house up. It's almost ready. My cat has been with my mum for about 3 months now, really settled and gets in fine with my mums other cats.
My mum came to my new house this morning to wait for a delivery while I did the school run. When I came back, she said she noticed just how many birds there are in my garden. I have a large garden with trees also down each side which are full of nests. My house also backs on to the local park so it's full of greenery and wildlife.
Now while I know it's all part of nature, my mum questioned wether I should actually bring my cat. He is definitely a hunter and my mum thinks that while he will absolutely be in his element, the amount of birds especially he will catch will be very high and it's quite unfair.
Just to add - my mum is not trying to keep my cat. She has 3 of her own and definitely doesn't want anymore but she would be happy to carry on looking after mine.
I would of never thought of this in a million years....thoughts?
