I used to have to rescue a bird every other day inside my house or clean up what was left of a bird. My cats have been wearing these collars for two weeks and apparently, the birds are safe!
I was going on vacation recently and the cat sitter asked that I have a bell collar so she could find the cats when she came in as one of them I call the round mound of sound tends to not be overly food motivated and will eventually come down when there's a sitter for food but may need to stretch and walk around a bit beforehand.
We have purchased a few collars in the past, two of which looked quite similar to this albeit with bowties, and the kitty jerks I live with managed to remove the collars somewhere they can not be found (we suspect they removed them in a closet behind some furniture at this point but who knows)
Anyway, it worked for its intended purpose which was to notify the cat sitter where the round mound of sound was.
I adopted a couple of cats, and of course they need collars. I selected the pretty, green BirdsBeSafe breakaway collar for my rusty-colored cat. It was easy to adjust. The construction is excellent. It's reflective, which is a great feature even if I don't intend on letting these cats outside. The best part of all is that in addition to the breakaway clasp (which looks like a cute cat's head), the fabric is stretchy! This collar wasn't just designed with the safety of birds in mind but also the safety of the cats! My only possible complaint is that the bell, which has a nice, light jingle, is more of a blue color than green.
Do I recommend this collar? Most definitely! In fact, I just ordered a second one, this time in blue, for my other new cat!
Got this for a 2 month old kitten and he was very annoyed for about 30 min and then he just acclimated. It looks adorable, has a decent sizing range and the bell helps keep up with this little fella.
This is an attractive colorful cat color with an effective bell to help warn smaller furry friends outdoors.
It's easy to adjust and secure on your family cat.
Compared to other "breakway" collars, this one takes some force to undue which may help prevent losing outdoors but I'm not sure if a cat can undue. The material isn't as soft as others on the market but my cat seems comfortable and doesn't complain.
