Amazing. Yay to the inventor and yay to all the birds saved
My boy Buster can enjoy watching and running and nary a kill !
Love the colors & the collars seem to work with birds. The bell helps our timid cat keep track of our bully cat. I’ve taken the bell off the timid cat’s collar, will see if that impacts warning the birds. Using brightest collar(s) on long haired cat as the long fur diminishes collar visibility. Initially the cat lost 2 collars. Recently found one with holes in the material snagged in brush (we have a large, naturalized garden). The collar did not break away. No idea how long the cat struggled to get it off. Also the long haired cat scratches a lot, her fur seems to get snagged on the breakaway collar’s buckle etc. I have to rotate it in the colorful sleeve to alleviate the problem. But, overall, fewer birds are caught.
Both my cats tolerated their new bird be safe collars for a few days. Then one lost his in the neighbor's yard and brought a bird in 3 hours later, his first bird in 6 months. The other cat wore it for about a week and then refused to let us put it on him. So I guess the cats won for now. We will try again.
Found this dangerous cat as a 4 day old or so kitten in a church's parking lot. Yep and I think his mom abandoned him cause he is pure evil lol. He is so crazy that there is no way to keep him in the house he wants to go out to the yard and hunt. The problem is he hunts everything bunnies, birds, mouse, once I found a mole in my closet. ....so I needed a collar that said look I'm dangerous and now he is in a bright vibrant color with two huge bells on. Does it help? Yes the bigger animals have a chance lol! But the insects and lizards don't. I was concerned about the birds in my yard this has helped a lot. Now the mice in my yard? No chance I have no animals in my yard anymore I'm sure they see him coming. Good quality, fits easy over a collar, beautiful colors. Also if the color falls off I can see where it is now. I need to buy extra so don't buy them all my cat is on the prowl.
Here is my cat Stitch (aka Mick Jagger) wearing one of the many, many BirdsBeSafe collars I have purchased for him!
