Hi Purple. Thanks for editing my bird and cat entry. It looks much better with your bulleted list. Big improvement 
There are just 3 very little things that need to be altered back (sorry to be a pain):
1) You've changed my footnote number 1 (RSPB) from "Royal Society for the Protection of Birds" to "Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals".
2) At the end of the third paragraph it should be either "... the numbers of cats still increase" or "... the number of cats still increases".
(I'd actually prefer "the number of cats continues to increase" rather than "still", but you're the editor so I'll go with your judgement on that one if you think "still" is better.)
3) The RSPCA is first mentioned in bulleted paragraph 4 now, under the "How cat owners can help" heading. There should be a footnote there to explain that the initials stand for the "Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals".
Great job! Thanks again.
Shorn
