A necessary accessory for your four-legged meowing friends is a cat collar. A loving owner will not stint on the acquisition of such an interesting thing. And the point here is not only in beauty, but also in the undeniable usefulness of this item.

Master, don't panic

A beautiful conspicuous collar will perfectly highlight your shaggy (and not so) pet. Or it will protect it from parasites and give you, if necessary, a calm stay next to the pet. Yes Yes! Some collars worn by pets exist to calm the nerves of the owners of these animals. How does it work? We will tell you about this without concealment right now. But let's start with those models of cat collars that will benefit your kitty or cat.

This type of collar at least once in my life was bought for their cats by most of the owners of these animals. Now we do not mention irresponsible owners, with such unfortunate owners everything is already clearthey treat a living and intelligent creature like a meowing mousetrap. And, of course, these people do not care what problems the cat has and whether they need to be solved. Today we are talking about adequate owners. So, most of the adequate people who have a four-legged friend are concerned about removing parasites from the cat's fur.

Fight the parasites on the fur

Seeing vile jumping creatures in the soft fur of their pet, many go and buy a flea collar for cats. This type of accessory looks like a narrow band of ordinary thick rubber. The collar is treated with an active substance that can cause panic and disgust in fleas. Yes, that's why small parasites jump in a race with cat hair. Some of the most persistent fleas move closer to the "rear" of the cat, gathering in the back of the animal, and they soon disappear. Who jumps, and someone simply ceases to exist under the influence of substances on the collar. Before putting the accessory on your pet, put the collar into action - pull the ends of the tape in opposite directions. This will open the rubber "pores" and the substance will gradually come out of the collar.

Precautions

The expiration date of a substance is usually written on the packaging of the product. After the specified time, the collar must be removed. A flea collar for cats in some cases can cause an allergy in an animal or lead to intoxication of the body. In these cases, things must be disposed of in a short time. Delay maylead to irreparable, tragic consequences. Cat collars with anti-parasitic treatment may be stronger in terms of chemical impregnation of this item, or they may have a plant-based impregnation.

Not only fleas

There is another type of collar to help your cat live happily ever after. The fact is that with the advent of the warm season ticks come to life. The tick is a real killer of all living things! Having stuck to an animal (and not only), he is able to destroy him in less than a week. To exclude the penetration of this insect into the skin of your most beloved pet, or even more than one, you need to put a tick collar for cats around the cat's neck. Usually, a bonus to such an accessory is its ability to scare away not only ticks, but also fleas. All these insects, due to the effects of substances, significantly slow down their pace, and the animal easily shakes off the bloodsuckers, while they have not yet made their way to the surface of the skin to do their nasty business.

Attention

Be careful not to use these types of collars on a cat at any stage of pregnancy. Nursing this thing is also strictly prohibited. After all, the milk that a cat feeds its cubs can poison small and fragile kittens. Due to possible intoxication, a kitten can wear a collar only from the moment when he is three months old. Collars that act on bloodsucking should not be worn on animals that are too mobile. A cat or a cat can get caught ontree or somewhere else. The collar will not open, and such a useful accessory will turn into a killer. Be careful and careful!

Pheromones everywhere and everywhere

Did you know that there are pheromone collars designed specifically for mustachioed pets? Before that, the word "pheromones" was perceived by you as something … not at all for these animals? But it turns out that a pheromone collar for cats helps your pet become more docile and calm. Such an invention will help pets even in moments of great psychological stress. Moving to a new home, visiting a clinic, moving into another pet's apartment, or having a small child at home are just some of the times when a pheromone collar can be used. This handy thing perfectly removes aggression in some cats. A nervous animal smells a certain aroma and on a subconscious level understands that there is no danger, which means there is no need to worry.

Proper use and some precautions

When using a pheromone collar, be sure to take precautions:

1. Do not wear it if the animal has damaged skin.
2. Remove the accessory before bathing your mustachioed pet. You can put it on only after the wool coat has completely dried.
3. Collar tape should hang freely, no need to tighten it. When it touches the wool, it already starts to work perfectly.
4. After working with the collar, a person must wash their hands with soap and water!
5. A month of use is the limit for this type of collar. After it has passed, the tape must be changed to a fresh one.
6. You will notice a noticeable effect after a week and a half. It is at this time that your pet will begin to behave more calmly and adequately.
7. Be careful when you put the accessory on the animal's neck. It is necessary to monitor the behavior and well-being of the cat. In case of unusual behavior or excessive lethargy, remove the collar immediately. Do the same when you notice the intoxication of the animal. Any living being is capable of responding to chemical elements in its own way.

Cat, welcome… welcome…

Do you want to always be aware of where your mustachioed pet is at the moment? Then a GPS collar for cats is what you need. Abroad, collars with such a device are spreading quite quickly. And this is not surprising. Caring owners want to be able to save their kitty at any time if she is in danger. A cat can be frightened and, having run far from its home, get lost forever. This nimble and ubiquitous animal is also able to climb where it cannot get out. A cat in such trouble may meow until it loses its voice, but the owner will not be able to find it because it has no idea where it may be at one time or another. In our country, such a useful device has not yet spread much. The price of a GPS collar for many loving owners remains impressive. Its cost can start from 10,000 rubles and more.

Cat collar reviews

1. Some catsOwners feared that putting on a pheromone collar on their animal, they immediately noticed an increase in aggression, although they expected the opposite effect. The animal began to yell and run around the room with bulging eyes. After removing the cat calmed down. In order to make sure that it was the collar, the owners brought the cat closer to the accessory, and the inappropriate behavior was repeated again. I had to give up the collar.
2. The collar with lavender impregnation calmed the cat. The cat behaved like a well-bred animal for exactly a month. A month later, the action stopped, and I had to repeat the purchase again. But the wearer himself developed an irresistible aversion to this collar because of its scent.
3. From fleas and ticks. The collar designed for these purposes has proven itself from the best side. The product is equipped with clear instructions and does its job well.
4. Accessory impregnated with plant substances is not as good as a chemical one. Here the owner himself will have to decide which tick collar his pet will use.

Your attention was presented to the main types of collars necessary for the safety of the pet, as well as for your peace of mind. A he althy pet is a happy owner! And if you have not yet thought about an important cat accessory, then now is the time. Not far away is the hour when the sun will melt the ice on the ground and ticks with fleas will begin an active "hunt" for your pets.
