Recently, PetFusion sent us their Tranquility Window Feeder to review. The hummingbirds left our area in early October, and I really wanted another window feeder so Allegra could watch birds up close. Over the summer, I had a hummingbird window feeder attached to the sliding glass door. I keep several bird feeders on my deck and in my backyard year-round. I happen to love birds, and love watching the activity at our feeder almost as much as Allegra does (although I won’t chatter my teeth when I get excited…) I keep a few toys near the window so if they need to grab and attack, there’s something suitable there to throw about.A strategically placed bird feeder could turn out to be one of the most popular choices of entertainment for your indoor cats.

If you have reflective windows near the feeder, you may want to look into some tape etcĪs for the stimulation you’ll provide - priceless! Cats are endlessly entertained by stalking and hunting and this is a great way to enrich them.

(If you want help with ideas, happy to assist but need a brief description of yard so DM if you wish.) They will dive bomb as they’re coming and going so a safe route is the responsible thing if you’re luring them out. You don’t want parrots or large birds that will chew on everything, hanging around a small feeder.Īlso, worth looking into a small tray of water. I watch what birds feed most, and adjust the feed accordingly. In a worst case scenario see if you can find an option that places the feeder further away from the window but for now I think it's fine.Īs long as the feeder is kept clean, and you provide adequate cover for hawks and other predators that like to stalk them, the birds will quickly learn the cats can’t touch them and they’ll be happy for an extra food source. They're just excited to stalk, catch, and kill them! Just remember to give them the catch and kill sensation every once in a while and watch out for any behavior that might cause injury if they get too excited. They don't think birds are evil or encroaching on their territory like a rival cat or something.

I just don't want them to be sitting at the window all tense and worried like they have to defend the house from the evil birdiesīirds are prey to cats. Put a blanket on the printer and windowsill or something. Make sure they have a soft, safe place to go crazy when a bird comes. I would definitely avoid opening the window and risking a fall. If your cat is throwing themselves against the window that may be a sign to not have a feeder so close. Your videos show excited, happy, and engaged kitties. Is the meowing he's doing to the birds down to fear of them or just excitement?ĭefinitely excitement.

I would suggest that you redirect to a toy to satiate the "catch" and "kill" part of their hunting instinct every once in a while, or else they may get a bit too charged up. I feel like this setup might be less useful than a feeder further away as birds that come to the feeder will probably be immediately scared away. I don't have experience with a window feeder, but as long as your cats aren't hurting themselves on the window it's probably fine. Access to windows where there is a lot of activity is generally regarded as a good thing to engage cats when you can't be actively playing with them. However, is this teasing my cats too much?
