Cat collars with safety buckles
Discover soft, adjustable cat collars in colours and patterns that give your cat its own style. The models have a safety buckle and can be paired with a personalised ID tag.
A thoughtful choice for your cat
The buckle is designed to open if the collar comes under strain.
The collar should sit securely and comfortably without being too loose or too tight.
Choose between calm shades, bold checks and models with a matching bow.
The safety buckle is an important detail
Cats climb, squeeze through tight spaces and move quickly between different environments. That's why Don Lorino cat collars have a buckle designed to release under strain.
If the collar gets caught, the buckle can give way and give your cat a chance to break free. This reduces the risk of your cat getting stuck, but cannot guarantee that every accident is avoided.
The buckle is designed to give way if the collar gets caught.
Furniture, handles and other objects can also catch a collar.
Check the buckle, the material and the fit at regular intervals.
Find your cat's style
Don Lorino cat collars combine an adjustable fit with different colour palettes and details. Choose the model that feels most like your cat.

The cat collar should sit close enough that it can't easily get caught around your cat's lower jaw, while still allowing comfortable movement.
Fit the collar to your individual cat, not just by age or breed.
The collar should feel comfortable without sliding loosely around the neck.
Let your cat try the collar under supervision and see how it sits when your cat moves.
Coat, weight and growth can change the fit. Adjust the collar when needed.
Add your cat's name
A personalised ID tag lets a finder quickly see your cat's name and your contact details.
The ID tag complements your cat's microchip and registration, but doesn't replace them. Because the safety buckle can open, there is also a chance that your cat loses both the collar and the tag.
Check the collar regularly
A cat collar is worn close to the body and needs to be checked to keep fitting well.
Make sure the buckle isn't cracked, damaged or blocked by dirt.
Replace the collar if the material has become very worn or damaged.
Adjust the collar if your cat's size, weight or coat changes.
Make sure the tag is still attached and that the contact details are up to date.
Let your cat get used to a new collar in a calm environment.
About cat collars
Which cat collar should I choose?
Choose an adjustable cat collar with a safety buckle and a soft material. Then check that the size fits your individual cat. Colour, pattern and bow can be chosen to suit your cat's style.
Why should cat collars have a safety buckle?
A safety buckle is designed to open if the collar comes under strain. It can reduce the risk of your cat getting stuck in the collar.
Can an indoor cat wear a collar?
Yes, but the collar should still have a safety buckle and the right fit. Indoors there is also furniture, handles and other objects where a collar can get caught.
What size are Don Lorino cat collars?
Willow and Tiki fit neck circumferences between 18 and 28 cm and are 1 cm wide. Measurements can vary between models, so always check the size table on the product page.
Can I attach an ID tag to the cat collar?
Yes. Several models have a ring where a small ID tag can be attached. Choose a tag that is in proportion to your cat and check that it doesn't interfere with your cat's movement.
Does an ID tag replace my cat's microchip?
No. An ID tag makes your contact details immediately visible, but doesn't replace microchipping and correct registration.
Can I attach a lead to the cat collar?
A cat collar with a safety buckle should not be used with a walking lead. Use a cat harness designed for walks.
Can my cat lose a collar with a safety buckle?
Yes. Because the buckle is designed to open under strain, the collar can be lost if it gets caught. This is part of the safety function.
