Birdsbesafe Cat Collars: A Solution to Cats Preying on Song Birds
Do you want to protect song birds from your hunting outdoor cat?
Use the Birdsbesafe Cat Collar, which is highly visible to songbirds who see bright colors even more easily than you or I, because of their eye anatomy. Songbirds’ eyes have more rods and cones, which allow them to see bright colors in low light and from a distance. The songbirds will see the Birdsbesafe Cat Collar and thus, see you cat easily and quickly. It’s like the cat has a warning flag around its neck saying “danger--here”.
When the birds instantly see your stalking cat, they will fly off, before the cat has time to pounce and capture the bird.
The Birdsbesafe Cat Collar protects the birds from your hunting house cat. A typical result, according to our customers, is for bird predation to drop to almost no birds harmed--by the same cats who were problem bird-hunters before wearing Birdsbesafe.
The bright-colored fabric tube covers a breakaway safety collar that adjusts for a comfy fit. We use a “kitty klip” brand breakaway buckle and 3/8” wide red webbing material for our inner collars and a slide buckle for adjusting the fit easily.
The breakaway collar releases under pressure, such as when the cat hangs it up on a branch, and the fabric tube also falls open--so your cat is always safe wearing out product. We feel the Kitty Klip type we sell is the best there is on the market at this time, however Birdsbesafe cat collars may come off unexpectedly. Some customers have great luck with the collars staying on for months and months; some are occasionally lost. That’s the reality of breakaway collars. See FAQ for more information.
If you like, you may buy the Birdsbesafe fabric ruff separately, without our buckled interior collar, for $7.95 in case you already have a cat collar that your cat enjoys.
Birdsbesafe Cat Collar is available on the Buy Birdsbesafe page for $12.95 plus a small shipping fee.
Check out our August 2010 YouTube Video of Jorgina, a long-time wearer of the Birdsbesafe Cat Collar. Her owner, Tom, reports that instead of her capturing many birds each week, he’s now surprised if she catches one in a month! He calls Birdsbesafe 90% effective! His comments from one year ago are also on the Feedback page.
Here’s George, our cat, and first product tester. He was an avid and skilled bird-hunter, bringing in birds almost every week. Not good!

- In the first year of wearing the Birdsbesafe Cat Collar, he killed NO birds. What a relief! In 16 mos., he managed only 2-3 birds captured, and 2 were ground-nesting birds who were in our garden. But the many woodland songbirds were saved! Thrushes of several kinds, goldfinches, woodcock, even a grouse, had been his prey.
