My Simon wore a collar when he first came home. When he outgrew it, we bought another that turned out to be a tad too large. We waited until he grew into it; by that time, he was adverse to wearing it and managed to get it off his neck (or at least onto his bottom jaw).
I feared that I'd come home to find him seriously hurt from a collar stuck on his bottom teeth, so I've not made him wear one since. But now that he's a year old, I want to put one back on him, if only to make myself feel better (due to the fear of him ever getting loose).
Does anyone have any suggestions about how to get a cat to re-accept a collar? I've read to play with the cat for about 20-30 minutes, by which time he should have forgotten about it. But that didn't work with Simon. *sigh*
Thanks,
Jenk
