On care

This is more delicate than a nylon collar — no machine washing, no tumble drying, and it needs keeping away from prolonged damp and heat to protect the velvet. If your cat spends a lot of time getting wet or muddy, a nylon collar elsewhere in the range will cope better.

Why we chose it

The care instructions being this specific told us the velvet is genuinely worth protecting rather than just a soft-sounding word on the listing. It suits a cat that spends most of its time somewhere dry.

— Matt, founder

Size guide & how to measure

Collars are sized by the neck girth — the measurement around the base of the neck where the collar will sit.

How to measure

Wrap a soft tape around the base of the neck.
Add room for two fingers between the tape and the neck.
Use that measurement to pick a size whose range it falls within.

Size	Typical neck girth	Rough guide
XS	20–28 cm	Toy breeds, kittens
S	26–36 cm	Small dogs
M	34–48 cm	Medium dogs
L	46–60 cm	Large dogs
XL	58–72 cm	Giant breeds

Ranges are approximate and vary by style. Always check this product’s Specifications for its exact measurements.

Full description

Most cat collar listings say almost nothing about care beyond "spot clean", which is why the level of detail on this one's washing instructions is worth noticing rather than skimming past.

It's a velvet collar with a tartan-patterned bow, and the care instructions are specific: spot clean with a soft, damp cloth only, no machine washing or tumble drying, and keep it away from prolonged moisture and direct heat to protect the finish.

On care. This is more delicate than a nylon collar — no machine washing, no tumble drying, and it needs keeping away from prolonged damp and heat to protect the velvet. If your cat spends a lot of time getting wet or muddy, a nylon collar elsewhere in the range will cope better.

Who it's for: owners wanting a smart, velvet collar for a cat that isn't constantly getting wet or muddy.
