Don't blame the cats .......blame the owners. It is a relatively simple task to stop cats from killing birds........though cats are by nature predatory......you just put a collar on the cat and add a bell.
As for cats using your plant pots for a toilet....again it is simple to get cats used to using a litter tray for toilet purposes.

even if this woman had issues about cats soiling her garden, this was not the way to solve those problems.....she ought to have known better.
