What happens if I put the collar 24-7 on my cat??

Each of our cats have worn one full time and done fine with it. We use it to keep them from going out the dog door. We have never had an issue with skin problems. Our previous cat who we had for his whole life and our current cat both are shorter haired cats.

I have a Persian so I can't really answer you. The collar did NOT work on her. I did try it on my friend's short haired cat and it worked well. I have a different (more powerful) one for my dog and it works wonderfully and he wears it 24/7.

My cat wears it 24/7 and it is not a problem. He messes with it and it gets a little loose sometimes and I have to tighten it, but that's it.

I don't think that would work. The collar would irritate the cat's neck too much. I believe the directions also tell you not to do that.

My cat chewed on the collar and it began to strangle her. By the time I found her she was cowering in the bathroom covered in blood and drool. She could not cry out for help. Thank God this happened while I was at home, otherwise she would have died. This collar does NOT breakaway as advertised.

Hi Nicole, I have been using mine for 4 month's with no problems. At night time I remove the collar and our dog comes in just to give her a break. I hope this helps. have a great day, Mark

I think it might. I used the difuser that is plugged in and slowly releases the pheromones. When I plugged it in the response was very quick. I used it because I had brought in a new kitty and my other kitties were a bit negative and at times aggressive and this seemed to help the situation quickly. They sort of mellowed out when I turned it on. And the effect was pretty much permanent. My sister has used the collar on just one of her cats who terrorized her other 5 cats and it also worked well. However with him she has to keep replacing the collar 2 or 3 times a year to keep him in check. I hope you find this information helpful. Linda I think it might.

I have it on my cat 24 hrs per day without a problem. I checked it a few times in the beginning to be sure it wasnt rubbing her.

I think that depends on how much you use the collar. Usually a few days, a week or more.

No, the device doesn't will not affect you at all. In order for the collar to be effective it needs to be in direct contact on the neck of your pet. It senses how much intensity to emit based upon how persistent the barking is. So again, don't worry about getting shocked, it doesn't quite work that way on us.

It needs to be charged regularly and i noticed that I have to reset the collar almost every time i use it. Other than that, it has been working just fine. I am wondering if my dog will go back to old habits once i stop using the collar or will it program her not to do certain things so eventually she won't do them even when i don't use the collar. Has anyone noticed the difference with their dog's behavior when the collar is not used?

I think it probably CAN, but it would be a bit awkward. The collar is fairly wide and heavy for a cat. Not sure whether the cat would respond the same as a dog... I.e. Would they shoot up the first tree they came too, or return home? I think it would definitely be less than ideal.

We don't leave the collar on 24/7. Just in times where necessary. I can point the remote at our dog even if he doesn't have the collar on and he will stop and listen.

Flat out... yes. Once I got the collar tight enough, my cat quit using my family room as a litter box, and he doesn't seem to think any other spot he has access to is suitable to use except the actual litter boxes. I have two cats and three litter boxes in the laundry room. The boxes are cleaned twice a day. I don't know if you can use three collars with one device; I only have one cat that's a problem. Refer to the other answers on that one.

Yes, my kitten did not have a collar small enough but I ordered the extra small version of this and it just velcroed on. She was much much happier than with a cone and often used this as a pillow to sleep! Very easy to get on and off. My kitten was 2.9 lbs when I used it.

I think it's too wide for a cat collar. But I would contact the vendor and see if they make a suitable one for cats. They could engrave the necessary information on 2 lines and allow you to size it to fit your collar.

This collar works better than I could of imagined. My cat is an indoor/outdoor cat and I never see him scratching or chewing himself . It is well worth the money.

I don't think you can. I used tape to hold down the latch when my cat didn't need to wear the collar because the other cats couldn't figure it out. Once the other cats figured it out, I took tape off and collar on.

Sorry to hear . I know it's heart breaking. I lost my 10 year cat a year ago.I had been using the collar with the kitten for about 9 months now. She never had a negative response.From my experience it actually helped.Again sorry for your loss

Hi. It could on a larger cat 10 lbs and up. It will look big, and the collar is not a break away collar, so that could be a problem for a cat. Thanks!
