Window seat perch and protector for domestic birds

Abstract

An article for a domestic bird is provided with a perch rod surrounded by protective base, window wall, and side walls for mounting inwardly of a window of a building. A domestic bird free-flying in the building, or a clipped bird climbing a ladder or braided rope, can alight on the perch rod in the article and enjoy the light of the window while being prevented from pecking and damaging the wood and other structure of the window. The window wall and side walls of the article extend well above or beyond the perch rod a distance greater than the maximum reach of the bird's beak while the bird is standing on the perch rod. A portion of the article also comprises a base below the perch rod, for catching droppings and spatters of the bird. The article is mounted to the window glass by suction cups, and can be further supported by cushions on the base of the article which engage a horizontal surface of the window structure, as a sill of the window structure or the top of a lower sash. The article is preferably molded in one piece, with the base and window sides rounding smoothly into one another and into side walls.
