Trying to pick out a collar for Zoot and Riot. Someone said that these might be good for Zoot since they are really lightweight. I can't pick a pattern though! These are the ones I've narrowed it down to.....though it's not really narrowed down by much! http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y291/PeauxnyLover/collars/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; This is the site: http://www.ragtimepetcollars.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; What are your two favorites? This is Riot: [img]http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y291/PeauxnyLover/Zoot%20Suit/P4050109…] This is Zoot: [img]http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y291/PeauxnyLover/Zoot%20Suit/DSCN2437…]

I am not keen on any of them but saw these and thought they were funky -

These are quite funny too - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Diamond-Rock-Kitt…" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I have used these and they look nice on any cat and are reflective -

seriously though if you do like any from ebay UK I can post them to you. ;)

The only collar I would put on any cat would be a fully elastic one.
The injuries caused by cat collars can be horrendous, mostly happening when the cat gets trapped somewhere, loses a bit of weight, then slips it's shoulder through the collar.
Amputation of the leg is usually the only way to go with this sort of injury.
Be warned!!

From the ragtime pet collars website.

[quote]The Break-away buckle is a safety feature for your kitten or cat. If they are ever caught on something, wiggling aroung will cause the collar to open, releasing your pet. Because of this safety feature, I will not make a leash for the cat collars.[/quote]

I am not at all sure that wearing the collar round one leg and the neck would cause it to break.....

I always test mine out. Riot's current one has a buckle, which I'm not too fond of, but it has tons of elastic and it comes off easily. The ones with breakaway snaps are my favorites, her old one had that but she lost it in my house somewhere.... I bought a new one a while back for Zoot but it comes off tooo easily, and she yanks it off within 5 mins of me getting it on her haha!
