Same here with Nellie...She's allowed to go outside and I thought it was a good idea to give her a collar (she's microchipped, too!)...one day while working in the garden I've heard terrible noise from one of the shrubs...I found Nellie stuck in there with her collar and she was really frightened, jumping around to try to free herself...gladly I was around...just imagine what could have happened...this was an elastic cat collar, but it nevertheless happened that she got stuck...ever since that day I am not fond of the idea of having a collar on a cat that is allowed outside...

My vet's cat has a funny tiny green buttonearring in his ear that indicates that he is microchipped, too and has an owner...I guess that's a much better idea to show other people that this particular cat belongs to someone...
