Wow, Warren, those birds on the feeder are adorable.

No wonder the guardian felines watch them so closely. I can see the slightly flattened ears on the tuxedo indicating she has spotted an interloper.

I am 100% with you on keeping the naughty kitties indoors, more a multitude of reasons. In our area there are quite a lot of predators who love a kitty for a meal. Also the birds remain safer with them inside. And there are ticks. So inside is where they have to stay.
