How to prevent cats from falling out of high-rise apartment windows?

Question

I live on the 10th floor of an apartment building and I am wondering what are the safety measures for opening my windows during the while preventing my inquisitive cats from potentially falling off? Especially when pigeons like visiting our windows. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 5 months and 28 days old

There are mesh panels which can be fitted to escape - you would need to monitor closely at the start to ensure your cats do not attack and create holes in them if very persistent! There are also child proof restrictors which limit the window opening to only an inch or so to allow for ventilation - ensure they are not open enough for a cats head to get stuck however. If possible, keeping the cat out of the room with opened windows would also ensure they could not fall
