[Birdtalk] Killer cat

We have several cats in our neighborhood - some are feral cats and some are pets. I have bells on all of my cats and that seems to do the trick with them. I also have caught feral cats and relocated them through No More Homeless Pets. I would try and get a bell for this cat - but if he/she is wild, then that will be much harder. Good luck!
