This is what you do........

A pair of Robins have had babies somewhere in our garden. The adults have been showing the youngsters where the bird food table is.
I'm now making sure that Inca our Somali doesn't go out. My other 2 cats, Muffin our Ragdoll and Tabby our Devon Rex don't go out unless we are in the garden with them so they are no threat.
