I've watched neighbours cats take out song birds in our garden several times. They're usually too well fed to actually eat them so just "play" the bird gets injured/has a heart attack and dies from that. Something like 1 in 10 homes has a cat on average in the UK. The better fed/kept they are the better they hunt.
