What to look for when choosing a collar for cats

  1. View. Decorative are common decoration. They can be encrusted with stones, various beads, c embroidery and so on. Antiparasitic used in the period of activity of ticks and fleas. Allow you to protect your pet from insects and diseases carried by them. The action of such collars is temporary, so they should be changed after the expiration date. GPS collars are the most expensive. With their help, it is easy to trace the movement of the animal and quickly find it in case of loss. Some models can also monitor the health of the cat by sending a report to the host’s smartphone in a special application. Reflective or luminous ensure safety, especially at night. Wearing such a collar will not have to worry that the pet will be shot down on the road. Collars with bells are designed for active animals who love to hunt. With each movement, they make a sound that warns, for example, a bird or a rodent that the cat is nearby.
  2. The size. Most models have a standard size, as well as a length regulator, thanks to which it is easy to fit the collar to your pet. Despite this, before sending for purchase, measure the girth of the cat's neck with a meter tape. Add two centimeters to the resulting figure to get the optimal value. Between the neck of the pet and the collar there should be a gap of at least one and a half centimeters. Check it out by sticking one or two fingers that should pass easily.
  3. Comfort. Choose products from pleasant materials where the side edges are rounded. Only then it will be possible to avoid rubbing and damage to the cat's coat. The wide collar should be preferred narrow, as it is practically felt on the neck of the animal. The inside of the collar should be smooth.
