When I was a little girl, I had a black cat. We lived on the 9th floor. One day the window was open and a pigeon landed on the ledge outside. My cat lunged at it, and thankfully I was there and grabbed her by her rear end.

I was able to pull her back in, the pigeon still in her clutches. She ran to the bathroom and hid behind the toilet with the bird in her mouth.

She growled and made absolutely insane noises at us as we tried to get her out and save the bird.

Eventually, we got her to let go. Sadly, the bird died. We never kept that window open again, and I learned that day that Margo was a freaking ruthless hunter.

Honestly I’m impressed your cat managed to kill a bird while still technically being an inside cat. That takes a special intersection of luck and skill.

Kill a bird while being on the 9th floor… that is a whole lot of luck and skill, I agree.

I’m not gonna lie, I was a bit traumatized by the whole situation but my mom did a great job explaining that I did my best and prevented the cat from jumping to her death while hunting the damn pigeon.

All of them are. They devastate ecosystems if they're let outside, that's one of the reasons they tell you to keep them indoors. They kill an astronomical amount of wildlife.
