Default my cat keeps losing his collar!

Hi. My cat has now lost about 5 collars in the neighborhood. This doesn't
count those that neighbors have found and returned. Many of the times he's
come in without it, he's also been a bit muddy, so I suspect he's been
crawling under some brush that's snagged it.


It's expensive because we have a magnetic cat door, so each time we
replace
a collar, we also have to replace the magnet and his tag.

We've tried several different types of collars - break-away and stretchy.
Obviously we want to continue to use a safety collar, so that he CAN get
out of it in an emergency.

Does anyone have a particular type of collar to recommend?

I've also considered getting some kind of device which would track the
collar, like one of those key rings that beeps. Any suggestions there?


Boo ****ing hoo.
Keep your cat indoors. The money you've spent on collars and cat doors will
pale in comparison to what you spend to cure the illnesses he gets from
roaming.
