I think our cat will have to become an indoor cat as she keeps on bringing in birds. We’ve tried keeping her indoors when birds are most vulnerable and she wears very loud bells. Not sure what else to do, she’s obviously just a brilliant hunter. I feel a bit cruel making her be an indoor cat when she’s used to being able to go outdoors but we’re not sure how else to stop her from injuring and killing things. I had a couple of cats many years ago and never experienced this -they killed a couple of house spiders but that’s about it-so not sure what else to do as I know it’s just her instinct and some cats will have it stronger than others.
Could anyone suggest anything else we might not have thought of? Or if we do make her become an indoor cat, any tips to make it less stressful? She really doesn’t like not being able to go outdoors, will she get used to it in time? Is there another solution?
