Birdsbesafe cat collars

Saving wild birds from outdoor cats

You Can Protect Wild Birds from Your Cat


Birdsbesafe® cat collars can help birds avoid your cat. Since 2008, our unique and original product has saved thousands of birds from cats, world-wide.

Wearing a brightly colored Birdsbesafe® Cat Collar, your cat is immediately seen by songbirds. It’s like the cat is wearing a bright flag saying: “Danger, here.”

The birds fly away to safety instantly. Cats don’t have time to get close enough to capture the bird. Birdsbesafe® cat collars are tested, effective and safe!

Why do birds see Birdsbesafe so well? Songbirds see bright colors in their environment extremely well, an adaptation that lets them see berries or their mates’ bright feathers.

Bright colors appear even more bright to birds than you or me, and they see bright colors easily even in low light conditions. This is because they have more rods and cones.

Birdsbesafe® Works!

Cats either catch no more birds or they catch very few birds. Even “problem bird-hunting” cats routinely become largely unsuccessful bird hunters.

The author of Eat, Pray, Love, Elizabeth Gilbert, a long-time Birdsbesafe® customer, graciously wrote us this testimonial in January 2012: "What a great product this is! Not only do my cats look jazzy and Elizabethian in these collars, but their murder rates among sprees of local sparrows and robins have been cut down enormously. All very cool."

We like all our customers' feedback, from famous or non-famous cat owners, and you can see more at the Feedback page. Our annual customer surveys have shown very reliable positive results with nearly all cats who wear Birdsbesafe capturing fewer or no birds.

Scientific Study Underway. We're also happy to report that in January 2012, a scientific study has begun in Western Australia to objectively evaluate Birdsbesafe's effectiveness with thirty volunteer cat owners. Great!

  • The breakaway collar releases under pressure, such as when the cat hangs it up on a branch.
  • The fabric tube also falls open, so your cat is always safe wearing our product.

See the Birdsbesafe YouTube Video

The Birdsbesafe Video on YouTube is here. You'll meet George, our cat who inspired Birdsbesafe® cat collars. He was a skilled bird-hunter, bringing in dozens of birds a month, before wearing Birdsbesafe.

In the first year of wearing the Birdsbesafe® Cat Collar, he killed no birds. What a relief! We stopped George's hunting success and we can help your cat, too.
