Just had to chase the neighbors cat away from a juvenile kookaburra that was on the ground in our yard. The cat has been on the other side of the fence waiting for its chance to finish the job.
We put the bird in a cardboard box to take to the local vet tomorrow.
Can anyone give me any good reason why cats are still allowed to roam free without consequence in this country?
Update: We were woken by cat noises again this morning. After a safe and quiet night in a box the fledgling kookaburra was released where it was found and after several attempts it managed to fly up onto a roof where it will at least be safe from ground based predators today. Multiple adults birds in the area this morning and some amazing bird calls.


Yeah but you failed to consider that there’s this really cute outdoor cat that I see on the way to work almost every day and he purrs really loudly when I pet him and he’s just a little guy
I know that cat! Its a con-cat, reels you in with fake purrs to get you hooked; next you know, you’re at the grocery store buying another of bag of kitty litter.
That cats workin you!
