Loved this while I had it... My cat managed to ditch it & his quick release collar somewhere in a blackberry bush in under 2 weeks LOL. So I guess my one complaint could be how easily the fabric catches on brush/bramble causing it to be lost... I'm sure in a suburban area you'd never have that issue. We live on acreage. But while he did have it on he didn't catch any birds so it did work as advertised. Will probably get another one soon.
My cats lose these collars really easily. I know the underlying release collar is partly to blame, but maybe the fabric could be made to be more resistant to snagging? I also think they could be a little bit shorter in length so that they’re not as hard to put on the collar.
Easy to use and seems to work well . Our cat took to the collar quickly and wears it most of the day now. We haven’t seen him with a bird since using the collar.
We purchased the Rainbow Billy Birdsbesafe as well as a bell collar and our cat began wearing them about 2 weeks ago. Previously, he was a very prolific hunter with several kills a day including mostly rodents but a few birds. Since he began wearing this collar, he has been completely unsuccessful! He continues to try and still enjoys the chase. Also, we were amazed at how easily he adapted to wearing it! He has absolutely no problem with it! Fantastic product that solved the problem perfectly!
Well I'm happy to report it works excellent for my dog too!! Luna is a 15 lb terrier and she has killed about six song birds too many. She brings them to me proudly because it is a part of her DNA. We have had no more bird deaths since she has been wearing it. I am so relieved, what a fabulous product!! I'm so glad to find your site.
My cat almost hurt a bird so we decided to try this out and it worked like a charm. No more birds harmed!
I didn’t realize it had a reflective edge to it, that’s a nice feature. Hopefully this will work, I will come back to update! So far the quality looks great.
J’ai bien reçu ma commande malgré quelques soucis de douane avec un super suivi client. Mon chat n’est pas du tout gêné par la collerette et c’est très efficace. Je constate moins d’oiseaux morts. Les bracelets sont de très grande qualité aussi. Je recommande.
Sailor girl used to bring in multiple birds a day. Sometimes they are headless. It was traumatic for the birds and for the family. From the day she got the collar she never killed another bird. It's been amazing. Thank you!
This product is AMAZING! I was so frustrated and sad that my cat was leaving me 'gifts' at the door, but since wearing the collar, she is unsuccessful at catching birds. She doesn't mind wearing it at all. I have two of them in rotation now on breakaway collars with bells. If all outdoor cats wore them, millions of birds could be spared. It's a welcome compromise for cats that insist on going out. I tried to keep my cat in but she destroyed the moldings around my doors she was so desperate to get out, so I gave in after several years. I have to add that she still brings mice home, but no longer birds, which makes me very happy.
Not only is the birdsbesafe collar so vibrant and easy to put on. But it really does help making sure our feather friends are safe. Also, makes it easy to find the furbabies when they wander off
I ordered these extra ones because we only had one of them. One day recently it was in the wash and she went out and brought home a bird! It definitely works. Now she can have one on at all times.
I am shocked. Our two cats were bringing in 2+ birds a day. I didn’t expect this collar to work, but I thought “I’ll try anything.”
In 3 weeks, our little rainbow clowns have not caught a single bird.
We even watched it happen. One cat was slithering in the grass toward a robin. The robin flew away before she could even get close.
There were initial issues with us not having the collar tight enough and one cat would get her front leg consistently stuck in the collar. But now that we both have figured it out, it is worth every penny (as long as they don’t lose them 😅)
I can’t say for sure if it works for the birds but she sports it really well! We think it’s adorable on her! The quality is very nice and it’s worth the money. I hope it will help the birds out but we shall see.
Very happy to have 5 collars for my cat Bowie and his friends around us. Since our cat wears a collar cover from you, no bird was killed anymore in our garden: it is a real relief. Bowie had a bad habit of taking poor birds inside the house.
Willow is a stray we took on last year. He began hanging around our house so we fed him, tricked out our shed for him with a heated house and heated water bowl. After a few months of that he decided he lived here so he does! Our two dogs are not thrilled but we make it work.
I also feed birds so the combination was not great. Willow has brought me at least three birds. When I saw him by the feeders I'd go out and let the birds know they needed to fly off.
Now they see him coming in his snazzy Birds Be Safe collar! He goes out in the morning to check the world but spends most of his time in the house. I slip the collar on in the morning and remove it in the evening when I close his catio. We love it and I've told our vet and lots of people about it. I read about the collar in The Atlantic and ordered right away!!
Thank you for all you do.
We have had so many different ones :-) All striking! My cats never are bothered by it and they are comfortable. Definitely has reduced the bird kill rate. I tell everyone about it since they can't help but ask, give. How good they look!
I love your product and was just replacing 2 collars that my cats have lost somewhere outside. I want to protect the birds.
Our orange-and-white tabby Odi had been averaging two birds a week. Since we put the Rainbow Sally collar on him, he’s gotten not one single bird. It’s quite miraculous. I’ve got no idea why it works, but it does.
Seems Good, My Cat Doesn't Seem To Mind It On At All And It Looks Good, Seems To Slow Her Down A Bit As Well. Have Yet To See If It Helps Save Any Birds From This Bird Murderer Cat Of Mine! Hopefully!
