I have something new to add to my shop that came abourt when I found something about 8 months ago. It was my cat Ricky. He was about 4 weeks old and his mother had abandoned him. Ricky has become an indoor / outdoor cat, and I have been worrying that someone would think he was a stray. I bought a collar at the local department store. But I didn't think it was safe, if he got it caught on something when hes playing he might not be able to free himself. After a short time I took it off and he didn't wear that collar again. So I went in search of something safer, that's when I found these breakaway clips for cat collars. The break away collar clip is designed to come apart if the cat gets it caught on something, and his weight should open the clasp, clasp can then be refastened. I made my first cat collar for Ricky, it was OK, but the fabric I choose had some stretch and that made it stretch out some. The next one I made was with a good quality cotton fabric and double thick interfacing to keep its shape and softness. I will be posting more about these wonderful collars real soon.
You can read the story about how
Ricky the cat finds a home on my Artfire blog.

Ricky decided to join the photo shoot of the cat collars. Ricky is modeling his brown handmade cat collar and checking out the other cat collars :) |

Ricky decided to wear the Fourth of July cat collar. I think it gives him that patriotic look. |
These cat collars will be arriving in
kathisewnsew handmade and vintage shop this week.
Enjoy your weekend.
