Why my pussy wears a bell.
She's indoor/outdoor gray cat. Hard to see except in broad daylight.
First the bell lets me know she underfoot and keeps me from breaking my neck. I got tired of tripping over her all the time. Even with the bell I stepped on her today when she was lying around. Lucky I was able to stop before putting my full weight on her. Also she doesn't always come when I call. Before the bell there were times when I stood at the open door calling her only to find out later than she had snuck passed me into the house. The collar breaks away. Don't know where the first one was caught but she came home one day without it. Perhaps being a long hair make the collar more comfortable. I had a short hair cat who would not wear one. |

Lights only work if you happen to be looking in that direction. They are good for helping drivers to see one on the road. The bell lets me know if she's in the house whereas it would be impossible to see even flashing LED if she's in the next room. |
