Did you know that domestic cats are the #1 killer of our imperiled native birds? In the US alone they kill 2.4 billion birds each year. More than any other human caused threat, by a long shot.

They may make nice pets, but they top the International Union for Conservation's list of nature's most destructive invasive species.

If you're an environmentalist, a birder, or you just love nature, keep that kitty indoors.
