Cat collars: Where to get 'decent' ones?

Test For Echo

Looking to replace the well worn collars on my indoor cats. Can't seem to find a collar with a slight stretch that is also 'snap free'.

Any pet shop I've gone into just sold really cheap collars that a cat couldn't get free from if it got caught up in something. My two tear after each other like mad things so I'm looking for safe collars for them to wear.

Got the ones they're wearing in Sainsburys, but they don't seem to sell them anymore.

Any help? Thanks!

Hi,

Check out this site www.blingpetcollars.com

I bought a few cat collars for friends' cats and they would recommend them, and the owners of the site keep indoor cats also, so I think they'll probably have what you are looking for.

I find ancol ones really good, they don't have the elastic stretch on them but they do have a buckle which snaps free when any pressure is put on it. They snap away really easy so if your cat is an outdoor cat expect to lose quite a few of them but with indoor cats they are grand, you might just find them around the house a few times.

My cat doesn't take it off, I think he likes it! It's pretty loose and comfy

I get the ancol collars in Petworld, my cat keeps losing his whenever he runs in under the bushes so they definitely snap off easily when they have to!

oh for me this quest is like the holy grail! my two boys are mostly indoor, but also head out early evening, they too playfight somthing terrible so we go through collars like crazy. im not keen on the breakaway buckle, though some pet shops will only stock them as they say there are now supposed to be on all collars.

i usually go for a fully elasticated strap with a proper buckle, then as an added percaution i make a 'sleeve' to go over this from an old HiViz jacket, as this gives a tiny bit of protection if they go on the road. (it also helps me find them when they hide in the ditch and i shine the torch looking for them!) the fully elasticated ones i got in a local shop but i have also bought a few of them on ebay.

Ordered 2 Ancol collars on Ebay. Didn't seem to have them on Petworld's site.

I like the personalised collars on Kittycollar's site. Might just order 2 of them as well (I'd already ordered the other ones) and see which are best.


Thanks all! :cool:
