Soft Cat Cone, Adjustable Pet Recovery Collar After Surgery to Prevent Licking Wound, Protective Cat Neck Cone, Comfortable Pet Elizabethan Collar for Cats Kittens and Puppies (Small)

My poor, angry little flower.That said, this soft cone has helped a lot with a recent over grooming problem my tiny floof has had. She's been wearing the cone for 5 days now, and it seems to have avoided most of my tiny mischief maker's dramatics. It's nicely flexible without being SO soft she can just push through to groom her legs and belly. She had problems wearing it front facing because she'll stubbornly keep walking along the cupboards and trying to push forward with the 15 lbs of attitude carried in this 6.5 cat, not caring she's being pushed back by the cone from the cupboard doors. (If your pet is more likely to intuit that pushback means they just need to walk a little further from the wall instead of trying to keep pushing, front facing will serve you better.)Wearing the cone inverted is still surprisingly effective: she can partly get to her belly, but it's not at the same 'sphinx cat chic' level she was sporting 5 days ago. I really like the Velcro petal/section to the cone -- the hook side isn't so grabby it picks up my medium-long haired cat's shed fur (note the still white closure on my mostly black cat), but still keeps a nice secure closure that she hasn't been able to squirm free from. It's lightweight and doesn't actually seem to bother her once it was in place. The closure is quick to put on, too: just match the two ends, overlap, and they stay in place. I admit I had my doubts for what I'd get for under $10, but this ecollar has FAR exceeded my expectations. The quality is solid, stitching has survived almost a week of itchy and adventurous cat, and the foam inside still seems durable and firm enough to work after five days of 24 hour wear. I'm definitely glad I found this, and while I won't say the tiny cat is happy about it, she's at least not resorting to dramatic midnight complaint and telling the world I'm murdering her like with her last rigid plastic econe!

I originally got this cone for my very small (<6 lbs at the time) kitten after he was neutered, and it worked alright but the medium size was a bit big and he was able to get out of it a few times. However, recently my older cat who is pretty large (14 lbs) had a scab I needed to prevent him from licking, and lo and behold this cone works perfectly for him! It took a few days for him to adjust but now he sleeps with it and plays normally like it’s not even there. He’s popped it off a few times, but I’m still really impressed with the strength of the velcro and how comfortable it seems to be for him. I was worried that if it was too small he would be able to lick his wound, but he really can’t. I’m very excited this cone works for both my large and small cat.

Love this cone! I wasn’t sure which size to get so I got both a small and medium. My cat is 11lbs and the small fits her fine, I do like to velcro it only half way to give it extra room though. The medium fits perfectly, actually leaves room for more than 2 fingers when fully velcro’d. I love the wide flare of the cone because she can still use her food bowl and water fountain while wearing it. I like that it can also be flipped downward, I like to do this when she’s up walking around because it gives her head more freedom, but definitely is not great for laying down when it’s flipped that way. When it’s on the correct way she is very comfortable laying with it on. Both the small and medium are big enough that she can’t reach the incision on her stomach. It’s also super adorable, we have been calling her our little astronaut.

So if you have a 12 pound cat or large cat for that matter. I recommend getting the medium or large cone. I originally got the small and it was way too small for my cat. So I had to return it and got the medium instead. For my review it’s a great product to have if you want your fur child to be more comfortable instead of them wearing the plastic e collar, it flips inside and out easily if they wanna sleep, eat, or drink water. For me personally though it didn’t work out because my cat would easily take it off constantly and since I got a medium size for him he was still able to reach down and lick his leg area. But this isn’t a negative review on the product, I think it’s a great product but not a great product for my cat.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Love this product! My cat looks like a bit of a fool with it on lol, but he doesnt complain at all. He had to wear it for a solid 2 weeks when he got a little infection on a cut on his belly, and he seemed to find it easy enough to run, sleep, climb, and eat/drink. If he could talk, he'd give it 5 stars. Its also easily adjustable and so soft on their little bodies. Will buy again if needed. (but this one has not shown any signs of wear and tear and hes been going about daily life in it!)

I really like this collar it's soft the velcro does hold really well plus I like that you could flip it backwards for easier eating and then could be flipped back but biggest disappointment is it's not tall enough to keep him from licking his hind quarter which is where he's wounded and I don't need him licking. Otherwise a really nice collar but just doesn't quite do the job it needs to do, luckily I only paid $3 fo it because of my rewards points.

This is the 4th cone I've purchased for a simple spay and the one that finally worked. I have one very small and one normal sized cat. I brought two sizes of cone to the vet and bought another, wider cone from them since they pointed out the narrow ones I brought would annoy the outrageously long whiskers of my tiny girl. The vet cone saved the whiskers but left her unable to eat, drink, or see very well so I added to my cone collection. I got the small size even though it's slightly too small for her neck because of the width of the frill part and it's perfect. The velcro is wide enough that I can lap half the velcro so it's not constricting her neck but is still secure and she's able to move, eat, drink, etc. She's managed to hook it on her hip to lick her tail which makes her happy but her incision site is still out of reach which makes me happy. Her sister will need at least a medium and if you need this for any tail or back, double check the width
