I have had horrible experiences with collars, even though the cats did NOT go out. I thought that something was very wrong, the cat's head was at a strange angle, like a spasm, couldn't move....He got his tooth caught on a collar.....it WAS a breakaway, but it didn't break away....this and another cat was long-haired, so one couldn't see immediately what the problem was. This happened several times - I gave up on collars with ID from then one - they can get caught in branches, under fences and strangle......Natalie

I also buy ID tags that all say REWARD and my phone number, nothing else. This way they are all interchangable and I always have a new collar ready to put on a cat who has lost it's collar..... Some are very clever about getting them off. Lorrie On 05-23, Bonnie Hogue wrote: > Reminds me of the time I got Stormy a red collar with shiny > rhinestones. Oh, it looked so pretty on her grey fur!
