Can wearing a collar affect the health of cats?

Cats wearing collars will really affect their health.

Many people will choose to put a collar on the cat, on the one hand, it gives the cat an identity, on the other hand, it also looks good. In fact, wearing a collar does have a certain impact on the health of cats. In other words, people always feel uncomfortable wearing a collar.

Many people think that putting a collar on a cat (many collars now have the function of repelling fleas) is to help cats stay away from fleas. In fact, the so-called flea collar is not very effective. Generally, flea collars are time-sensitive and need to be replaced after a while. The owner generally thinks that it is good to have it, but after the drug effect, the flea collar actually has no effect and will be very cumbersome.

Cats need to pay more attention to wearing collars, especially when they first wear collars, and they will scratch differently because they are uncomfortable. If they can't catch the collar, they will scratch themselves. When taking a bath, if the collar is not dried in time, the water will remain in the cat's neck, causing bacteria in the hair near the neck, which will be infected if it is not handled properly.

I have seen many cats and babies wearing collars unreasonably in animal hospitals, resulting in hair loss and even injury and pus on their necks. Therefore, it is not recommended to wear a collar when you have no time to take care of your cat. In some special cases, the cat's neck is injured because the collar is hooked on other household items, and the cat is alive and will be injured.

Actually, I personally don't think it's recommended for cats to wear collars. Unless the owner has a lot of space to care about and accompany, it is recommended to take off the collar, because accidents are inevitable, so there should be no possibility of accidents.
