Things like this piss me off. YOUR cat eats YOUR chicken, but you wanna take it to the country and drop it off where in turn it will fend for itself by eating someone else's chickens? Do your cat a favor and find it a home before it meets a bullet by someone protecting their flock. Move to the country and experience people dropping off their unwanted cats, dogs, and pests such as coons that they couldn't kill because "it was just too cute", and see if you don't get pissed when it kills, maims, or gives your other pets, parasites and diseases. You're in the city, your cat has never experienced being around a chicken before. Cats kill birds, of course that's the chance you take when leaving your bird unsupervised. Cats raised around flocks all their lives sometimes turn on a flock if it gets hungry enough. Same for livestock guardian dogs. There is ALWAYS a chance it might happen. It's your fault for not keeping your chicken in a secure coop. If you want to blame anyone, blame yourself. I've had a fox kill 2 of my cayugas and I'm not gonna flip at the fox, because it's doing what a fox would naturally do. It was my fault for not putting them up a few hours earlier. Next time if you want a chicken, do it a favor and build it a SECURE coop.
