But you nature-lovers out there might like something a little more organic when the doorbell rings.

sparrow doorbell

These avian doorbells from China not only look like birds, they let out a variety of dissonant chirpy and tweety noises when a visitor arrives on your stoop.

lark bird doorbell

While some might find the bird sounds soothing, I think I’d pull every last hair out of my head if I had to listen to one of these every time someone was at the door. My orange tabby cat, on the other hand, has already plunked down his credit card to order a dozen.

For all you bird watchers (and felines) out there, they’re available in both the brown sparrow and green lark designs for $10 to $11 bucks a bird.
