For the return of the #UNMBioblog after our year hiatus, I chose to write about the negative consequences for cats, humans, and #wildlife when we allow #cats to roam freely. I couldn't help myself with the punny title.

I was inspired to write this blog after I witnessed my neighbor's outdoor pet #cat killed a #bird under my feeder. A heated argument ensued. I know nothing has changed because I still scare him out of my backyard. I've counted 9 different cats in my backyard, here is one
I am a paradoxical #catlover, which stems from my #science & #ornithology career. I know how cute it is for my own #cat to frolic in flowers but I understand how dangerous it is for #cats, human #health, & #wildlife when cats roam #CatsOfTwitter #Caturday #catsofinstagram

Hey-o! Time really does fly when you’re having fun! Today is 6 mos since I came to live with Mom, Dad & sibs so this is my 6 month-iversary thread. To recap here's my 3 mo thread:

So that was June 6. I still wasn’t fully in gen pop then. The next day we had a birthday party for Indy & @MJtheBrownCat, and I was at the party! Well, sort of anyway. It was fun!🎉

Also in June, since I had FINALLY sort of learned how to jump, I tried the cat shelves! I continued #beercat duties, and hung with my sibs during the day. Continued progress!🌞

I have enormous respect for you, @MargaretRenkl, as a writer [my NPR review of 'Late Migrations' last year said as much]. I've had a complicated response today to your new essay on this feral cat /1 nytimes.com/2020/08/03/opi… #feralcats #cats #animals
First, I very much appreciate the shift from 'I would never kill a cat, but I can surely hate one with a murderous rage' to 'A feral cat — like a house cat allowed to roam outdoors — is not an evil creature.' As someone who has rescued and loved feral cats, I am grateful. /2
I want to add that every single cat but one we've rescued over years is now enclosed, either indoors w/ us, or in a pen my husband built in our yard. You'll see that my Twitter feed here is full of bird photos, as the birds in our yard enchant us and we want to protect them/ 3
