I agree wholeheartedly with your reasons, and we continue to keep collars on our goats!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-351299832598163605.post-37547606210891180322014-03-08T15:17:47.594-08:002014-03-08T15:17:47.594-08:00I agree with being in favor of collars, even for (...I agree with being in favor of collars, even for (most) cats. I have tried to keep my cat collared in the past, but the only thing that keeps him here now is age - he still likes to get away if o ne holds a door open to bring in packages or chat with the FedEx person. I used to put a "safety collar" on that cat, which broke open with tension on it, but I suspect he found out how to pop it open once he got out. A pop-bead collar might work if there was a way to put the phone number/$reward on part of it. Dog collars are a must. All my pets have carried an ID chip, since they once emigrated to Maui, and needed it to get clearance to go back to the mainland. I don't expect someone to take my dog to a shelter or to a vet's office, but that's a back-up ID if the collar were lost. Lip tattoos could work - again, if a finder were inclined to look for it, but I haven't gone that route. Barryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15483102573957001593noreply@blogger.com
