Yesterday I went swimming in my friends freezing pool, and when we all got out, her cat had a baby bird and was holding it by the neck! We saved it, and we put it in an abandoned nest in a pretty high tree so we really hope her cat can't get up there. It's not bad to have a cat, but try to keep it indoors most of the time.
The National Audubon Society says 100 million birds a year fall prey to cats. The American Bird Conservancy says 500 million birds are killed each year by cats — about half by pets and half by wild cats.
I didn't know birds need this much help.
I hope that the baby bird will survive! Luckily you were there to save it.
