Of course they do, every time they grab some and kill it. The RSPB
only suggest that cats aren't uniquely responsible for any decline in
bird numbers in general but without a doubt there would be more birds
about if cats weren't.

Cars kill more birds than cats do.

Cite, OOI?

I did, at around 18:40

Where your 2014 link looks more like 1997 ... and as pointed out by
others, only reflects a very selective (and not typically
representative) stretch of road.

And I have posted some links that indicate *way* more birds are killed
by cats than cars.

But that's not really the point. If you wanted to make one from that
the chances are that many cat owners also drive so are going to be
killing more birds than the owners of most (if not all) other pets.

Oh, now it is the cat *owners* who do all the killing.
Fair enough.
