We really enjoy hearing from you about your successes with Birdsbesafe® collar covers on your cats protecting birds in your yards. Here's just a sampling of some recent emails that we have received! We appreciate every one of them. Thanks for caring about cats and birds. "We love your product, it’s amazingly effective…not a single caught bird since we’ve started using the collar covers. Wish all cat owners who let their cats outside knew about these."

Today, in Vermont, we are past our peak foliage color display, and the first snow fell in the White Mountains last night in nearby NH. Many species of birds have already migrated through, on their way to wintering locations to the south. A few weeks ago, we saw this unidentified Thrush species, with a few other birds, grazing over a period of days as they fed for the long flights to come. And today, there were Dark-eyed Juncos and a small flock of these Sparrows.

More news, as we know it.

Would you dress up your cat in brightly colored "ruff" to save the lives of backyard birds? It was an open question, when I started my company to popularize my own bird-saving invention in 2009. Eleven years later, we owe all our customers a debt of gratitude for providing a resounding "Yes" to that question. You do care about birds, and you will use our colorful cat accessory to save birds from your cat. Thank you!

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!
Tinx hasn’t worn it long enough to comment whether or not the birds are feeling safer when she is nearer to them.
Though I will say the collar is nicely made, the reflection strip looks great and she feels comfortable wearing it. She is more at home and that maybe a sign that birds are no longer her playmates to be found.
Thankyou, will buy again from you when another is needed…
