I always leave extra kitty kibble out just in case birds want some. Doesn't seem much of it disappears though. But then again, there aren't hardly any birds here. 😓

Thx for sharing!

Of course the feral was dining on tuna & canned kitty food, & I had just put it out for him.

He stoppwd in driveway to gobble bread! I was

Do most cats like bread?

Of course then he tucked into a high protein feast, but that astounded me!

I have 1 pair of robins here & I always watch them to see if they'll snack on the kibble, but ghey seem.more intent on looking for bugs or something....

Just kidding. I once told my vet that I hung the bird feeders close to the ground to make them a combination bird/cat feeder. Got a really dirty look . . .
