I think that was a good idea, i.e. ordering the two they have available. That way if something else comes along that you like for the 3rd cat you can always get it or as you said, wait until they restock it. You'll have to post a pic of the cats wearing their new collars when you get them.
I decided to order the two they have available. Shadow shredded the last two collars I put on her so I'll keep my eyes open for the store restocking the one I want.
My kitties have a tendency to freak out with bells too. They jump in the air and always seem spooked and wide eyed. (Except for my little girl toonces)I love the collar but my cats hate the bells. They literally freak out so no bells for my family. They hear each other coming and so do I . There is no sneaking around in this family
My cats are all belled and incredibly stealthy at going into stealth mode when stalking birds at the window. If you've listened to my videos Mercy has a very loud bell because she took to hiding early on. She'll get a quieter one when she gets a new collar as she's leaned to come to her name.
Cats' hearing being far more sensitive than our own, and cats being both predators and prey in the wild, depend on stealth and are often very stressed by noise. Having to carry noise sources around one's neck could not be anything but stressful for cats. The first thing I always do when collars arrive is to remove the bells.
Carrot and Angua have been reading your Discworld books and taking notes from their namesakes. (Cats, of course, think all names were theirs first.)All my cats wear bells. Actually, Ruby has two bells. All my cats are very sneaky and can walk without jingling the bells at all. This hasn't been an issue for me since Carrot and Angua are incapable of running without making their bells jingle and my whole point in having them wear was to hear them coming if they run. Ruby can run with one bell and not make a sound. So she has two.
