Thread: Personalised and Funky Cat Tags/Collars from Etsy

I wont be collaring up Kalli as she's indoor only, but they'd look great on my other 2 moggies...but you know they'd lose them as quickly as I put them on, like they always do with new collars! There must be a stack of collars behind a fence somewhere!

Thanks for the links! I'm going to check out those crocheted collars. All my cats wear collars because even though they are indoor only and microchipped, I am afraid of them possible getting out. I have had a cat get out the door several times before when a family member went in/out or was letting the dog in/out. I was able to catch them right away but if I couldn't I am afraid if they didn't have collars and tags people would just assume they are another feral cat and ignore them... My cats wear tags that say "Indoor Only" or "Lost if Alone".
My Maine Coon doesn't seem to have a problem with the collar rubbing or flattening her fur down, I use a very thin breakaway collar for her. I do have one shorthaired cat Harley whose fur tends to get rubbed off by the collars and I do show her sometimes so I've been looking for a collar that doesn't rub her fur. I know several types that are supposed to not rub the fur off, they worked fine on my other cats but not on Harley. So far the only one I've found that works for Harley was a wool collar that looks similar to those crocheted ones so I might try one of those too.

I usually don't use hanging tags on my cats' collars (except for one cat who has a medical ID tag) so I don't have the problem of their tags getting caught anywhere and the collar coming off. I either have their collars embroidered with info or I use a Collartag (nameplate style) from Boomerang Tags.

This is my favorite type of collar so far, it's from K9 Closet (k9 closet • style and comfort for the savvy pet). It's called a Kitty Smoothie collar and they are made specifically to be gentle and soft on the neck fur:
