"I've always loved cats ... I didn't want to give up cats because I had birds
as well, and I loved having them in the environment, but now I can have both."
I'm a bit sceptical, and the quote above sounds like an irresponsible cat owner
who has been relieved of any feeling of guilt that might have led them to
confining their pets.
They field tested a US product called Birdbesafe. There's a page about the
tests on the Birdbesafe web site:

The study is here:

I don't like the idea of these being pushed as an alternative to confinement,
but at least the cats will look stupid now.
