A safer option might be to order Fiji a harness and taking her for walks. It's
pretty hard to walk a cat with a collar but a harness is pretty safe. You;d
have to put it on her a few times inside 1st so she got used to it. Then she
could safely explore the great outdoors. By the way you don't walk a cat.
They walk you. LOL
Mattie, my blind FeLV kitty loved going outside and exploring. I used a
harness and one of those retractable leashes.
