My cat nabbed a bird and brought it inside, I got it out if it's mouth without putting too much stress on the bird, which is still alive.

There's no blood and no visible injury, but the bird is very still - I gather that it's in shock. I've placed it in an empty fish tank far from reach of the offending cat. It's very still, just breathing and blinking.

What should I do /an/? I heard cat saliva is like a slow working poison to birds. I've decided to leave it alone in the dark and just hope it can make it through the night, if it does i'll take it to the vet - can you think of anything else?

Picture related, is the type of bird (crested dove).

I am not going to give my cat a live bird, and I'm not going to kill it myself.

Yeah, if it survives all that then take it to the vet. It probably won't though.

Someone should make a fucking sticky - if you find a sick/dying/baby bird, leave it the fuck alone.

If your cat managed to catch it without hurting it, there could be something wrong with it. Check back in an hour and see if he's active yet.
If not, you might want to put him outside, as he could be sick.

Leave out some water and some seeds and throw in some old tshirts so it can rest safely. I've never ever heard anything about cat saliva being a slow working venom to birds, their saliva isn't any more different then a dogs or other mammal so I wouldn't worry about that. If you can bring it to an exotic or wildlife vet, I would do that as soon as possible. There are many wildlife rehabs and any exotic vet should have the numbers. Just try not to handle the bird too much because of bird lice (not a serious problem) but you also don't know what it could be carrying such as fleas or mites etc. Also don't try to clean any injuries yourself because you could very likely make it worse since you probably don't have anti microbial/bacterial cleansing solution. Hope this helps!

A game designer? Studying? Get out of university and come back when you're prepared to get a real job and contribute something to the world.
