STOP CAT® Bird Protection Collars Help reduce bird catching while letting your cat enjoy the outdoors
Unlike ordinary brightly coloured cat collars, STOP CAT® has been developed using research into avian vision. By combining UV-reflective technology, highly visible fabrics and multi-tonal warning bells, it helps birds detect an approaching cat sooner, giving them more opportunity to escape.

Why Choose STOP CAT®
Unlike many bird protection collars that rely on a single method of increasing visibility, STOP CAT® combines three complementary features designed to help birds and other wildlife detect an approaching cat sooner.

UV-Reflective Technology
STOP CAT® incorporates specially developed UV-reflective elements that reflect  ultraviolet light and do not fade like fabrics can. As many bird species can see ultraviolet wavelengths that are invisible to humans, this helps make your cat more visible to wildlife throughout the day, particularly during dawn and dusk when many birds are most active.

High-Visibility Fabrics
Bright colours, carefully selected fabrics and bold patterns help improve your cat's visibility in daylight, making them easier for birds and other wildlife to detect.

Multi-Tonal Warning Bells
Rather than using a single bell, STOP CAT® features multiple independently hanging bells that produce a variety of tones and movement. This creates a more varied audible warning, helping alert wildlife to your cat's approach and prevent cats becoming familiar with the ring tone in order to silence it.

Together, these three features provide both visual and audible warning cues, giving birds and other small animals more opportunity to escape before a feline can pounce.

Thoughtfully Handmade
Every STOP CAT® collar is individually handmade with care using quality materials selected for durability, comfort and performance.
Over the years, the design has continued to evolve through ongoing product development, customer feedback and research into bird vision and behaviour. Every improvement has been made with one aim in mind—to create a collar that helps protect wildlife while allowing cats to continue enjoying the freedom of the outdoors.
Because each collar is handmade, we can also offer custom sizing and a choice of fabrics, colours and fastening options to suit individual cats and their owners.

Registration is quick and easy. Simply email us your collar's unique serial number once it arrives, and we'll securely record your details.

Should your registered collar ever be found, the finder can contact us using the email address printed on the collar and quote its unique serial number. We'll check our registration records and, wherever possible, help reunite the collar with its owner so arrangements can be made for its safe return.

This complimentary service has already helped reunite many lost STOP CAT® collars—and, on occasion, the cats wearing them—with their grateful owners.

It's just one more way we aim to provide lasting value and peace of mind long after your purchase.

Choosing the Right Safety Fastener
Every cat is different, which is why STOP CAT® collars are available with a choice of fastening options.

Breakaway Safety Fastener
Designed to release if the collar becomes caught on branches, fencing or other obstacles, helping reduce the risk of entanglement.

Standard Fastener
A traditional fixed fastening for owners who prefer a non-breakaway design.

Weight-Adjustable Breakaway Fastener
Allows the release force of the breakaway mechanism to be adjusted to better suit your cat's size and weight.

If a breakaway collar releases, it has done exactly what it was designed to do—help keep your cat safe.

Finding the Perfect Fit
Our standard collar is adjustable to fit most adult cats comfortably.

Because every STOP CAT® collar is handmade, we're also happy to make custom sizes for kittens through to larger breeds - Lions!

To recommend the most suitable fit, simply let us know:
  • • Your cat's neck circumference
  • • Approximate coat length around the neck and shoulders
We'll be happy to advise on the most appropriate collar width and size for your cat.

Trusted by Cat Owners
No bird protection collar can completely prevent predation, as every cat hunts differently and wildlife behaviour varies.
However, we're incredibly encouraged by the feedback we've received from our customers over the years.

More than 99% of customers who have left us an Etsy review report that STOP CAT® either eliminated hunting completely or significantly reduced the number of birds and wildlife caught.

While individual results will always vary, we're proud that so many customers have shared such positive experiences and continue to recommend STOP CAT® to other cat owners.

The Science Behind STOP CAT®
STOP CAT® was developed using scientific research into how birds see the world.
Unlike humans, many bird species can see ultraviolet (UV) light—a part of the light spectrum that is invisible to us. Scientists believe this enhanced colour perception plays an important role in how birds recognise food, navigate their environment and detect potential danger.

STOP CAT® incorporates specially developed UV-reflective elements that reflect available ultraviolet light, helping make an approaching cat more visible to many bird species.

Rather than relying on bright colours alone (which can fade when exposed to daylight), STOP CAT® combines UV reflection (never fades), high-visibility fabrics and multi-tonal warning bells to provide wildlife with multiple visual and audible warning cues.

This approach is designed to increase the likelihood that birds and other small animals will detect an approaching cat early enough to escape.
