my cat keeps losing his collar!
"Maxine G" wrote in message . 33.102... Hi. My cat has now lost about 5 collars in the neighborhood. This doesn't count those that neighbors have found and returned. Many of the times he's come in without it, he's also been a bit muddy, so I suspect he's been crawling under some brush that's snagged it. It's expensive because we have a magnetic cat door, so each time we replace a collar, we also have to replace the magnet and his tag. We've tried several different types of collars - break-away and stretchy. Obviously we want to continue to use a safety collar, so that he CAN get out of it in an emergency. Does anyone have a particular type of collar to recommend? I've also considered getting some kind of device which would track the collar, like one of those key rings that beeps. Any suggestions there? Boo ****ing hoo. Keep your cat indoors. The money you've spent on collars and cat doors will pale in comparison to what you spend to cure the illnesses he gets from roaming. |

YOu cant order one because it piles all these other things on it. I give up. I wonder where else you can get those collars. I just wanted to say the beastie brand velcro collar is a perfect collar. I was going on a 2 week vacation and Beebe was staying at the house of a friend and I wanted him to have his identification lavalier on just in case he slipped outside so I ordered the collar from the cat connection. The problem was it didnt come in time. If you order a collar, you must realize that the cat connection is in Texas and if you dont pay for 1st class shipment, the collar is sent like a letter and it takes a very long time to come to Philadelphia PA from Texas indeed. I dont understand why the us mail is sooo slow. So I had to use the same old elastic collar from Petsmart. Beebe is very has a very puffy coat and the beastie brand collar with a velcro closing is so much more comfortable for him. Its very worthwhile getting this collar plus the collar is quite attractive. Anyhow he never wanted to escape. Quite the contrary. Someone here once wrote about his cat looking for the "door to springtime." Well, Beebe has been doing just that. |
