My cats are strong and independent. They spend most of the daylight hours outside.
The pop off and ditch the break-away collars in less than a day. I'm moving to a new home that does not have all the neat woods that they are used to and I'm afraid they might roam looking for adventure. I'd like to have them in collars to lessen the chance they will be mistaken for hobos by the neighbors. Has anyone actually heard of a problem with using an old school buckle collar? I'm thinking the break-away feature is a solution to an imaginary problem. New property is 3+ acres. If they become neighborhood pests, they will be restricted to inside. They really love the outdoors though... |

I'm not a cat person, but why would a cat need a collar? Do you walk them on a leash?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 18B30: Cats don’t need collars. Problem solved. There it is. My cats are chipped, but stay indoors. They have free access to a screened in porch for fresh air. A collar isn’t going to save them from any threat, but can possibly prevent them from escaping one. |

Cats with collars are pets. Cats without collars are potential “targets of opportunity”, especially in areas populated by feral cats.

FPNI. Most of the cats I’ve had wouldn’t/won’t wear collars. They’ve lost the collars I’ve tried to get them to wear. I did try to use break-away collars, or collars that had elastic inserts. I’ve given up on collars for them. I have them microchipped, though. The city where I live doesn’t require collars/tags for cats as long as they’re licensed and microchipped.
