Whats the best cat collar with a bell?

Any recommedations. Mine don't wear collars, but George has just been sick with black bits in it - looked like feathers in it & then I noticed a headless bird on the patio.

He's a relentless hunter:(

And he sucessful:(

I know cats can creep to keep the bells on their collars quite, is their any that are really good to stop them creeping up?

Much as I hate hunting by Cats it's their nature & something I accept, i'd rather birds be at risk than my Cat die from wearing a collar (it did almost happen), plus personally I wouldn't like a bell ringing everytime I moved, even when not hunting, so a Cat with more sensitive hearing must suffer having a collar & bell. Does the Cat hunt lots? Personally i'd look if there's anything else that can help but never collars x

Yes he's an avid & successful hunter.

I don't know what else to do, I can't see any other way?

I don't let him out at night but he hunts in the middle of the day & is successful:(

I've never used collars but George is killing birds & squirrels a couple a week:(

I think the birds are suicidal at this time of year, I've had 3 'presents' from the cats in the early hours of the morning this week and earlier this afternoon my pup bought one in!

Squirrels! :eek:

He must be huge!

Mine have collars from Pets at Home, they have bells. They work. I can hear them coming!

I've one in pink and blue and they have metal fish shapes as a design all round.

xbrenx

Collars nowadays have a special clasp so if they get stuck in trees etc the collar will undo. I've seen them but never used them so don't really know if they work. Not much help really then lol

My cats wear the safety collars. They come undone under the weight of the cat so they cant accidentally hang themselves.

I have my cats collars from here:
