But we aren't planning to install as many wind turbines as there are cats, so you don't need to directly compare
My point is that the comparison is meaningless
No it isn't. The rate of birds killed is not important. The NUMBER of birds killed is, and wind turbines are just a rounding error in the number of birds killed. Even if we increased the number of turbines to supply all of the country's electricity, it would STILL not be anywhere near as many as cats.
