The cats catch the old and sickly birds that aren't on their toes/claws anymore. The young, sharp ones don't let cats slip up on them. That also keeps down the disease rates among birds. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

Cats climb trees and eat the baby birds out of the nest.

Cats should not be allowed to run free. The slaughter they engage in is enormous.
