I collect fur out of the cat brushes, dryer lint, and threads from
sewing and offer it to the birds.

Somebody here pointed out that having your chicks grow up associating
the fur of your deadliest predator with being warm and cared for in
the nest isn't giving them quite the right idea for later in life...

I did not see the post that suggested that.
Do you think that the birds who have cat fur in the lining of their nest
know what it is? Of course they don't. They just want it to line their
nests, and Boyfie is happy to donate his for the cause.
