FAQs

How do I measure my pet for the correct size?

Use a flexible measuring tape to measure the circumference of your pet's neck. Refer to the product description for size ranges.

Can my cat use this collar?

Yes, the smallest size (Extra Small) is also suitable for cats.

How do I clean the protective collar?

Wipe the collar with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry.

How long should my pet wear the collar?

Follow your veterinarian's instructions. The duration depends on the reason for use (surgery, injury, etc.) and the pet's healing progress.

My pet seems distressed with the collar. What should I do?

Introduce the collar gradually. Monitor your pet closely, and if they are excessively distressed, consult with your veterinarian.

What is the collar made of?

The collar is made of transparent plastic.

Troubleshooting

Collar seems too tight.

Loosen the hook and loop fastener. Ensure that you can comfortably slide two fingers between the collar and your pet's neck.

Pet is trying to remove the collar.

Gradually acclimate your pet to wearing the collar. Try positive reinforcement (treats, praise). Ensure the collar is not causing discomfort.

Check the fit. Make sure the collar is the correct size. Ensure that the hemmed edges are properly positioned and not causing irritation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Sizing: Measure your pet's neck circumference to determine the correct size. The product description provides neck circumference ranges for each size (Extra Small, Small, etc.).
Fitting: Gently place the collar around your pet's neck and secure it with the hook and loop fastener. Ensure a comfortable fit; you should be able to slide two fingers between the collar and your pet's neck.
Adjustment: Adjust the collar as needed to ensure it doesn't rub or cause discomfort. Make sure all uncomfortable edges face the outside.
Acclimation: Introduce the collar gradually. Allow your pet to wear it for short periods at first, then gradually increase the duration.
Cleaning: Clean the collar with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Compatibility:

The HERMA Protective Collar is compatible with most breeds and sizes of dogs and cats (in the smallest size). Always supervise your pet while they are wearing the collar, especially during the initial adjustment period. The transparent design is a great feature, and it doesn't limit the pet's visibility.
