The harnesses also have the advantage of not being as itchy around the neck, since they go over the breastbone instead of around the neck. There is a link between the shoulder blades meant for a leash clip, but it's a good place to put tags. The real advantage is that when we have to move or take the cats in the car, we can put a leash on them and tie the leash to a clip in the back of the car, so no more trying to stuff an angry cat into a carrier!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09861393242904676605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-82538726019649467922009-12-16T06:59:02.540-08:002009-12-16T06:59:02.540-08:00I'm impressed that y'all have cats who wil...I'm impressed that y'all have cats who will even consider collars.

Thus, I'm a bit of a cat collar expert.<br /><br />Those plastic clip collars are worthless. The best alternative has some elastic as a factor. One cat has purple leather with rhinestones..the other is 100% elastic. Both came from either PetSmart or PetCo -- the bad news is that the most recent purchase was a few months ago and his collar was on the clearance rack.<br /><br />You can buy little permanent tags for either version.Inside the Philosophy Factoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255753259090709877noreply@blogger.com
