Good question! All commercial collars in the U.S. are breakaway collars, one way or another. Either they have a clasp that lets go under the kind of pressure it gets if it gets caught on something, or it's made of something stretchy, that stretches far enough for the cat to get loose should the...

Yes, breakaway collars are the best for cats. This article gives some great advice: Cat Collars Safety Guide You can check out our reviews section to see what collars TCS members and their kitties have liked the best: Collars, Harnesses & Leashes | TheCatSite

I wish we had a central information here. It was a pain to try to reach all the different organization he might end up at but Link came home.  I've heard a lot about the Beastie Bands and just ordered some for Link and Rocket. We'll see how they work out. Beastie Bands are an elastic Velcro...

How about adding a review? I love the Boomerang tags. Mogli was using his dangling tag to pull his collar off, and somebody here recommended the Boomerang tag. It's perfect with a Beastie Band collar.

Boy, it looks like  you've tried just about everything!    I'm wondering if maybe a calming collar on Pippin might help.  The active ingredient is a pheromone and the theory is that because the collar is closer to the cats nose, and the level is constant, it is especially effective.  There are...

The most effective way to deal with Brisco's aggressiveness is to have him neutered.  Although it may take a month for his hormone levels to drop, this is where you need to start.   (See two articles below.) I'd also recommend  you try one or more of the calming agents available. 1.  Feliway...

It doesn't sound like your new girl is actually aggressive - she just wants to play, correct?   She does need to learn to leave Spike alone, however.  What is her name, btw? The first thing I would do at this point is to look into the various ways to reduce the stress between the two kitties...

Cats definitely take them off themselves. Mogli was going through about one collar a week before I discovered Beastie Bands. He'd get them off and chew them. One day I caught him in the act - he rubbed along the net that secures our balcony till he snagged his collar and could pop the clasp! I...

I'm in the United States where there are quite a few products on the market for reducing anxiety in cats.  I don't know how many of them are available in Croatia, though.  Here are some of the products our members have had success with - you might need to experiment since not every product works...

There are a few harnesses in our review section, but only one with a review, unfortunately (if you do find one you like, do let us know!). I use a fullish one with Sundar.  Initially he just kept falling over, as they do..   But gradually he has become used to it.   I prefer the fuller one as...

Both of our cats are now wearing collars by Sweet Pickles They are webbed, but have a ribbon exterior so they are soft against their fur.  I haven't noticed any balding since they are wearing them. Casper has "The Woodsman" (blue plaid), Cocoa has "The Free Spirit" (sparkly orange).  I had no...

How long have you been in the new place?  Cats are very territorial so his behaviour is not uncommon and I can see from an old thread that he used to meow in the night before.  Now he's really making his feeling felt. Have you ever tried a Feliway diffuser?  It gives out pheromones that can...

Has Poof been checked for a UTI?  That's the number one reason why cats stop using their litter box regularly.  If not, take her to the vet as soon as possible - these can be very painful.   Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease Flutd   Sometimes this remains a problem even after a UTI is resolved...

Our cat used his tag to remove his collar (and destroy it) so many times that I got him a slide-on tag. Two brands are Boomerang (U.S., but will ship worldwide) and Indigo (UK, will ship to other EU countries). In both cases, the "mini" tag is for cats. I've reviewed both of them: Boomerang Mini...

That's a tough question, because an awful lot depends on your cat. The clasp of a safety collar is supposed to pop open if the collar snags on something. Our last cat, Jamie, wore safety collars for almost 14 years, and as far as I recall he only got them off two or three times (when struggling...

I'm very sorry to hear things have gotten to this point.  What ever happened with the cat door?  Does she use it at all at this point?  How about some other calming remedies--I had good luck with a calming collar on one  of my cats:  https://www.calmingcollars.com     There are also thunder...

No, no I did not think you are taking this lightly, it is obvious how much you love your girls and want to make things better. You can get feliway relatively cheaply on sites like amazon.com and hopefully you wouldn't have to use it forever. Rescue Remedy may be a more cost effective option...

Hi everyone, I'm brand new here.  :) I have an eight-year-old calico that has what I would call "tongue to tush" IBD.  Primarily her concern is constant diarrhea (never a firm stool), but she also exhibits vomiting and nausea, plus lethargy, behavioral issues and discomfort.  I took her in...
