I moved in with an old cat who tried to push screens out of windows and jumped off a second balcony rather than be forced to live entirely indoors (We had the policy of no outdoor cats except we grandfathered in the original outdoor cats.) I bought a special collar for my old guy (different from the one linked to but the same idea) and as far as I know it worked....except for baby rabbits.

There are collars that are quite effective in protecting birds from cats, https://www.birdsbesafe.com/. Belled collars are not very useful because cats learn to walk without ringing the bell. The collars protect birds but not reptiles and small mammals.
