So I got an eCollar for Jellie. The small one. And she is doing ok in it. But i just wanna know. Can she eat with it on? Should i leave it off when i am supervising to make sure she eats? If she can eat with it on i will leave it and just have it off for small parts of the day for her to have a break. It seems like it would be kinda hard to eat with one on. But can she? dont want to jepordize her that way.

Some animals can and some animals can't eat with an e-collar on. I don't know why Jellie has to wear one but as long as you are there to watch her it's ok to take it off. But if you leave, even to go to another room, it should go back on.

I always elevate the bowl of a cat with an ecollar on, it is just easier for them to eat that way.
