What Is a Breakaway Cat Collar?
A Breakaway Cat Collar is a specially designed collar meant to keep cats safe while wearing them. These collars feature a safety buckle that automatically releases under a certain amount of pressure, allowing cats to free themselves if they get caught on something.
Breakaway = safety.
A breakaway buckle is a key feature in Pawsome Couture Cat Collars. It is engineered to automatically unclip if excessive pressure is applied, as might happen if the collar gets snagged on objects like window blinds, cat stands, ironing boards, or furniture springs. Such incidents can pose a strangulation risk, and our buckle is specifically designed to prevent this, detaching easily to allow your cat to escape unharmed. This feature offers you peace of mind, knowing that your cat is safe during both indoor and outdoor adventures.
Adult Breakaway Cat Collars are not suitable for kittens, they should instead wear a suitably designed Kitten Breakaway Collar.

How Does the Breakaway Mechanism Work In Breakaway Collars?
The breakaway mechanism in these types of collars is a buckle that snaps open when a specific amount of force is applied. It's designed to stay secure during day-to-day normal activities but to release quickly if the collar gets snagged or pulled upon, providing a fail-safe to protect your cat. Choosing a collar that matches your cat's weight ensures the breakaway feature will work properly to keep your cat safe in case of any mishaps.
Are Breakaway Collars Adjustable and Comfortable?
Yes, Breakaway Cat Collars are designed with comfort and adjustability in mind, just like a standard cat collar. They often come in various materials and sizes, allowing pet owners to choose a collar that fits their cat perfectly while ensuring it's comfortable enough for everyday wear. Your cat will not notice any difference wearing a standard versus breakaway collar, but will be significantly safer should they come into any danger.
Can Breakaway Collars Carry ID Tags?
Yes, Breakaway Cat Collars can still hold ID tags securely. This means your cat can be easily identified and returned if they wander away from home, combining safety with practicality. When selecting a breakaway collar, it's wise to verify that it can accommodate your cat's ID tags on an available loop or on the collar's hardware.
