How To Get The Right Cat Collar

 


There are different cat collars that are being sold in the market today but getting the best type for your cat will assure you that your pet will always be safe and comfortable. Leather cat collars are always good but when it comes to safety you may also want to consider breakaway cat collars too. Here are some tips in buying these collars.

It should be easily removed when necessary

You will never know when accidents might happen. If your cat gets trapped somewhere, collars that are easily removed with enough force will prevent them from getting choked or strangled. Breakaway cat collars are made to be easily unattached when enough force or pressure is applied to the clasps.

It should be flexible and stretchable

Breakaway cat collars also need to be elastic enough to be easily stretched when enough force is applied. This will make it easier for cats to free themselves from the collar whenever it gets stuck on something. Since cat collars that are stretchable will never put too much pressure on your cat's neck, you will never have to worry about your cat getting choked on its own collar.

It should fit your cat just right, not too big, not too small

Make sure that the collar would perfectly fit your cat's neck. If the collar is too loose, it would easily get lost since your cat will easily remove it from its neck. On the other hand, if the collar is too tight, your cat will feel very uncomfortable with it and will hate to wear it. To check if the collar is just right for your cat, insert 2 fingers between the collar and the neck of your cat. Your fingers should be able to fit in between them.

Your cat deserves all the love and care that you can give so before buying cat supplies for your pet it is better to research and consider the safety features first before anything else.
