Use a breakaway buckled cat collar inside it. For your cat's safety, it will fall off under pressure when the buckle releases. The collar accessory also features reflective trim to protect your cat at night. A U.S. field study showed an 87% reduction in birds caught. To date, 7 scientific studies, in 5 countries, have shown an average of more than 60% reduction in birds caught when cat's wear Birdsbesafe patented collar covers. Birdsbesafe covers are comfortable for your pet. Cats can eat, drink, groom and move normally. It's feline fashion with a Bird-saving Purpose—the birds will thank you and your cat will be the fashion hit of the neighborhood. Our bird-lover owner despised the hunting habits of his outdoor-going cat, George. Despite trying bells on his collar, George continued to bring birds indoors. Then, one day, George captured a Ruffed Grouse, prompting the owner's inventive solution. Knowing that birds see bright colors well, she sewed a tube of brightly colored fabric around George's collar, hoping it would make him more visible to his prey. Remarkably, George stopped catching birds altogether, and the change was evident throughout the seasons. Our product's uniqueness lies in its brightly colored fabric tube that makes cats more visible to birds, reducing bird predation. We love what we do because we've turned our innovative idea into a valuable tool for global bird conservation, thanks to the support of our customers. ## Features - Fashion Meets Function: Birdsbesafe cat collars are not just a visual treat for you and your feline friend, but also a bird-saving wonder.

My cat gets a lot of those but does not catch birds** A: The Birdsbesafe® cat collar cover is specifically intended to help protect birds from cats. The birds, with excellent color vision, may see the cat stalking, and gain the time to fly to safety. We would not expect any protection for chipmunks, alas. **Q: Does it get wet and soggy in the rain?** A: Yes it gets wet because it’s cotton fabric, but my cats don’t stay out too long in the rAin. Just put in sun or in dryer **Q: can you use it without a collar?** A: No. It "covers" the collar, and you use the collar to attach it to the cat. You can choose from all cat collars, and for safety, always use the best-performing "breakaway" buckled cat collar brands. (Breakaway buckles release from pressure, automatically, to prevent a cat from catching the collar on a natural obstacle and being stuck. When the breakaway cat collar buckle releases, the tubular-shaped collar cover falls free from the cat, as well Safety is paramount, that's why we let the cat owner choose the best breakaway cat collar to trust.) **Q: The collar looks really wide. What are the measurements?** A: Hi. The Birdsbesafe® collar cover is about two and 1/4 inches wide. They don't interfere with eating or grooming. They are also about 20" long. The length of the tube-shaped collar cover scrunches up around the cat's neck. They flare out to be very visible to birds. You can probably noodle around worldwide w. and find photos of cats wearing them. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works, Easy to use, Looks cute *by on Reviewed in the United States February 9, 2022* First of all, the product really seems to work as intended. My cat has been using it a few weeks now with no birds caught and she was getting them pretty regularly before, about once a week if I didn’t restrict her outdoor access. She is much easier for me to see now too, so it makes sense it would work for birds. She had no problem wearing it, accepted it right away. I take her collar off when she comes in at night anyway so she gets a break when she isn’t outside. I use a non breakaway because those clasps wear out when taken on and off each day. Another solution would be to use the beastie bands brand collar that you could slip over the head on and off and not have to remove the birdsbesafe sleeve. The bird safe collar is like a scrunchie that is open on both ends. You slip the fabric tube over the collar and then put the collar on the cat. It’s kind of tricky and time consuming to slip over the collar the first time, so be patient. I washed it before wear as it had a new clothes chemical smell, and I have washed it once since. Easy to hand wash in the sink and it dries completely overnight hanging on the dish drainer. I am just so happy that I can feel relaxed when she goes outside now, and I don’t have to keep her inside in order for birds to be safe. I was getting sickened by all the bird funerals, but making her an indoor cat was also not going to be sustainable. This is an awesome product, an inexpensive solution, and I’m so glad it exists! Also, it’s a bonus how entertained I am when I see her innocently showing up at the door wearing an Elizabethan/clown collar. Makes me smile every time! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The birds are safe in my yard now! Yay! *by on Reviewed in the United States April 9, 2025* I live near (and have volunteered at) a wildlife rescue. One of my cats is a savvy hunter and I was sick with guilt whenever she caught a bird 🐦. January of last year the intake person suggested I try a BirdsBeSafe collar available on Amazon. The minute I got home from dropping off the injured bird I ordered up a couple BirdsBeSafe collars and elastic safety collars to use with them.This was the best purchase ever! My cats haven’t caught any birds since I put those collars on! It was easy to set them up, the cats weren’t bothered either. It is good to wash the collars every so often to keep the collar colors bright. They work by making the cats more visible to the birds so they see the cat lurking! Their cat camouflage doesn’t work! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Every outdoor cat should be wearing one of these collar covers. *by on Reviewed in the United States August 27, 2016* This collar cover works phenomenally well for our fluffy little bird murderer, but of course it's not a foolproof solution. You have to think about it in relative terms. We were typically seeing one or two dead songbirds per day on our doorstep, but in the past four months since buying the collar cover we have seen a total of six. Four of those were in fledgling season, with baby birds that hadn't quite gotten their wits about them. When we realized this, we kept our cat indoors for two weeks until the little ones were mostly out of their nests.I'm really surprised at some of the reviewers rated the product badly just because their cats continued to kill a few birds. Even if the benefit is small for those cats, isn't it worthwhile? The collars aren't expensive and the cats don't seem to mind wearing them. The only 100% foolproof solution is to keep the cats indoors, which is often not a good option.A few more comments: We live in an area with a lot of ticks, and our cat is allergic to flea and tick medication so she attracts about four or five per day. The ticks love to hide under the collar so we have to examine our cat quite carefully, and remove the collar every couple of days to make sure we are not missing any of the nasty little buggers.The collar cover gets a bit dirty so I recommend hand washing it every 2-3 weeks. We have just purchased a second cover so we have a spare while the other is being washed and dried.Our cat has short hair, so the collar is quite visible. I imagine that it might not be as effective on a very fluffy cat.We are seeing more dead mice and voles on our doorstep since using the collar cover – I think our cat has figured out that she now has an easier time pursuing rodents.The quality is excellent - we are not seeing any wear and tear. The colors have begun to fade slightly, but that's not surprising after four months of constant use outdoors and several washings.If I could afford it, I would buy 1000 of these and give them away to everyone I know with an outdoor cat. Think of the difference we can all make if we use these collar covers and spread the word. ## Frequently Bought Together - Birdsbesafe® Puzzle Cat Collar Cover - Bird Warning Cat Collar, Scientifically Proven to Help Prevent Your Cat from Catching Birds - Please Purchase Breakaway Collar Separately - Birdsbesafe® Red Ruby Cat Collar Cover - Bird Warning Cat Collar, Scientifically Proven to Help Prevent Your Cat from Catching Birds - Please Purchase Breakaway Collar Separately - Birdsbesafe® Rainbow Sally Cat Collar Cover for Bird - Bird Warning Cat Collar, Scientifically Proven to Help Prevent Your Cat from Catching Birds - Please Purchase Breakaway Collar Separately --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/16417739-birdsbesafe-suzy-swirls-cat-collar-cover-bird-warning-cat-collar](https://www.desertcart.us/products/16417739-birdsbesafe-suzy-swirls-cat-collar-cover-bird-warning-cat-collar) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
