Product Information
Full details
The Ancol Softweave Cat Collar is an ideal choice for cat owners seeking a balance between daily comfort and essential safety features. Crafted from lightweight, soft-touch materials, it is designed to be gentle on your feline's neck during long-term wear. While the inclusion of safety elements like an elastic break-away segment and reflective strips provides significant peace of mind, owners should note that the bell is a permanent attachment that may not be suitable for cats who find noise-sensitive environments distressing.

FAQs
Is the bell removable?
The bell on the Ancol Softweave Cat Collar is designed as a permanent feature and is not intended for removal.
How do I know if the collar is the right size?
You should be able to comfortably fit two fingers between the collar and your cat's neck.
Does the collar break away completely?
The collar features a safety elastic segment that stretches to allow the cat to back out if snagged, rather than a hard plastic clip break-away.
Can this collar be used with a leash?
No, this collar is intended for identification and safety visibility purposes only and is not suitable for leash training or restraint.
How should I clean the collar?
Hand wash the collar with mild soap and water, then air dry completely before putting it back on your cat.
Troubleshooting
The collar seems to stretch out too quickly
Check if the cat is habitually scratching at the collar; if so, ensure the fit is not too tight as this can cause the cat to pull at the elastic.
Reflective material appears dim
Gently wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove dust or dirt buildup that might be obscuring the reflective properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the collar, ensure it is fitted so that you can comfortably slide two fingers between the collar and your cat's neck. This prevents the collar from being too tight while ensuring it is not loose enough to slip over the jaw. For care, hand wash the collar in warm, soapy water and allow it to air dry thoroughly before replacing it on the cat. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may degrade the reflective coating. Periodically check the elastic segment for any fraying or debris to ensure it retains its flexibility.
