Review on Hamilton 8 Inch 12 Inch Safety Lavender by Evelyn Peterson

This collar is strong but thin and light. That is a good thing. Cats don't like bulky, heavy collars and they get annoying with their tricky grooming. The second plus of this collar is the safety mechanism, which is a rubber band that stretches if the kitten gets caught on something. This is much better than the typical plastic buckle safety mechanism that usually opens too easily. The pendant and bell are very nice additions to the collar. However, I removed the bell. I don't want my cat catching birds - and luckily she's a lot more of a mouse catcher - but I read somewhere recently that if your cat was the one being chased/chased by a predator, the bell would give them away, when he tried to run away/hide. I had never thought about it, but it worried me a little. The bad thing about this collar is that the price has almost doubled since I bought the first one in May. Yes, Tucker lost his collar and I had to buy a new one. But it took a few months instead of a few days :)
