On her shipping info page (i believe it's that page... I definitely saw it on her site though) she quotes shipping prices in the USA and Canada and says she will ship elsewhere, but payment must be in USD and to contact her (via email) for shipping costs - she's a really nice lady and I'm sure will give you any info you need about it!

I THINK I paid approx. $38 for 5 collars, all personalised, including shipping to the UK.

With each personalised collar being around $6 - that would make postage to the UK around $8...something like that.

$8 - that's about £4, right? That's not half bad!

I am so glad I posted this thread and lots of people enjoy thier collars! I have had mine for about 6 months and it still looks new and is not dirty or has any stitching come off! I will probably order a fourth of july one just so sophia will be patriotic! Here is the website again www.ragtimepetcollars.com/intro.html. I hope all of your cats look cute! Enjoy!

Just out of curiousity.... those of you who bought these collars with the personal embroidering and they're holding up AMAZINGLY, do those cats have their back claws? (I know the majority of us here are against the declaw, but sometimes our kitties come to us already that way)... I'm definitely still buying and having Ollie's collar personalized - just kind of curious if claws ever catch the embroidery thread during scratches.... I'm so super excited to get him his new collar!

Sophia has all of her claws and they are very long and need a trim by the way, she ripped my hand up this morning when she thought it was a play toy!

Haha, sounds like Ollie - bunnykicking champion of the world (with my recent illness that took forever to diagnose, I was actually tested for cat scratch fever because of the marks Oliver can leave during intense play sessions, haha... I dont mind though) sounds like his collar will hold up just fine when I get it!

I'm so excited! She told me today she managed to find two fabrics she thought I'd like so I had my choice!

BTW, if any of y'all are or have recently contacted her: she told me today she's in the process of getting ready to sell her house, so things are busy in her life right now, but she's definitely still doing the collars and will email you back! I had emailed her, I think, on Saturday (gosh, I cant remember for sure) and she's already been out and found a custom fabric for me.... just be patient! hehe

Woot! Oliver's collar came in the mail today and it's gorgeous (er, I mean handsome, haha).... It's exactly what I wanted and got here really fast - she sent it out on Friday... I'll try to get a pic of it and post it (I had my phone number embroidered, so I'll have to block that out somehow, hehe)... Oliver was so excited like he knew it was for him! haha, it looks perfect on him - I love it!

awh, those are adorable. I bookmarked that page, and I'll definitely be ordering - once my kittens are big enough to wear them.


Should kittens wear collars? or should I wait until they're fully grown?

I got my two collars from there. Rambo got the camouflage print, and Lucky got pink camouflage. So hard to choose. I put their old ID tags on them. And they seem perfectly fine with them. Rambo hated all the other collars I tried, but these ones seem much lighter (and they do breakaway easy...I tried.) Can't wait to order more.

I still have yet to take pics of Oliver in his new collar for this site and to send to the maker... I know I know, bad mama but I've been busy with an online class, haha.... as for kittens wearing collars, I've never owned a kitten myself (Oliver was about 3 when I took him off the streets) but I think if it were me and I was gonna collar my kittens, I wouldn't spend quite so much money on such a high quality collar that they'll soon grow out of... of course I'm in no way putting down her product, praising it actaully! I guess I'm speaking from the perspective of a poor collage student, haha... they would be cute keepsakes to have once they're grown out of though

I'll take pics as soon as I can! The collar does break away easily (yet not too easily, like he's not losing it all the time) and came with a little bell... I added his ID tag and his microchip tag (now that he's chipped!)... It's still very lightweight - prolly lighter than any other collar he's had, and it makes enough nosie (sounds kinda like someone's keys/keyrings klinking together) to warn my poor dog when the monster is prowling nearby, haha

Someone smack my hand please and take my credit card away from me.....

I have just bought 4 personalised kitten collars from Ragtime Collars for the 4 kittens..I could not resist!

Hubby says the cats all have about 2 collars each already...but he doesn't understand... I told him 'How many ties do you have? More than 2 , right'?

His reply was 'Yes I wear those ties to work...and the day those cats earn a good day's wage is the day they can have as many collars as they like!'.

Ha ha!

*smacks Minxie's hand gently* Put down the credit card... step away from the computer...


No I have that problem too. Every time I have a little bit of extra money (and even when I don't) I spend it all on Zissou.

I couldn't resist. Vodka's collar broke today, so instead of going and getting another one, I bought one of the website
I got the hot pink hearts. Im going to wait to order her some holiday ones, to see if I can get them bigger. Shes only 4-5 months old, but i dont want to get her a whole wardrobe of collars shes just going to outgrow!
