Should we get our cat a collar?

The point of a cat collar is so people know how to return our cat when they get lost.

Yet, we have to use safety collars; the kind that will easily let our cat out of them if they get caught on something. So the collar we are counting on to get our cat back, might not be there when we need it the most.

If our cat doesn't mind wearing a collar, this might not matter. We can figure we have increased our odds, anyway. It also is a visible signal that this cat has someone who cares.

Still, we should not let a cat collar gives us a false sense of reassurance. And we certainly should not use the NON-safety collars.

Because of our cat's ability to eel in and out of small spaces, be cannot let our cat get trapped by a conventional collar. That would be the worst thing of all.
