Indoor cat owner here. I will say I think if you really want your cats to be outdoors you can buy special collars that will prevent them from killing birds. I did 15 minutes of research so this might not be entirely correct but it appears that putting a bell on them is not enough. It needs to be a special collar specifically designed to prevent them from killing birds.

Won't stop them from getting themselves run over, or catching FIV or FeLV, or getting mauled by my German shepherd when they hop into my backyard. PLEASE just keep them inside.
Maybe you should keep your German shepherd indoors to stop it mauling other creatures?
Dogs need to go outside. Cats don't. My dogs stay on my property, your cats don't stay on yours. I don't want to bury any more cats, so please just keep them inside.
You sound just as bad as the cat owners
I let my dogs roam in a relatively small enclosed area where they can't hurt anyone or anything that doesn't intrude. They can't jump the fence, they can't climb trees. Cats can and do jump fences and climb trees, which is why I've had to bury more than one. It's not like my dogs went into someone else's yard to pick a fight.
