ABSTRACT:
A bird predation deterrent shield is described herein comprising a sheet of flexible material suspended from the anterior neck region of a cat, at least as wide at its bottom as the shoulders of the cat, and sufficiently long to reach the level of the carpal regions of the cat when the cat is standing on all four limbs. Bird predation deterrent methods are disclosed herein comprising placing such a bird predation deterrent shield on a cat whenever the cat is outdoors. Use of a shield according to the present invention has been shown to drastically reduce the number of birds killed by a cat when worn by the cat while outdoors.
