My lovebug Ritz (female feline, roughly 20 months old) loves to watch the birds from my balcony window; that is her source of joy and entertainment while I'm away for 8 to 10 hours a day. Unfortunately, the neighbor below me does not like the bird poop or seeds. She's adamant that I stop feeding the birds unless and until I can solve the problem of sh*t dropping onto her railing and the seeds onto her balcony.
Any ideas how to keep birds off the balcony railing but *not* off the balcony itself. The railing is encassed with chicken wire as a precaution against Ritz ever escaping onto the balcony and falling 100 feet.
I can move the bird seed and suet cake close to the balcony window. But I'm on the top floor of a three story building and there are no trees close to any window.
Alternatively, any ideas what to put on the balcony which would keep Ritz entertained and happy? Do the DVDs for cats work? (continuous loop DVD that has lots of birds on it)?
Thanks.
