I don’t often put collars on my cats, but when I do --- I want what I want.

I have seen and purchased very creative and clever collars designed by some extraordinarily talented folks. Often, though, what I want is a very simple, yet well-made, collar that complements both the fur and eye color of the cat. The ones I love best for this purpose are the stitched leather collars at the KittyCatS Mainstore --- the ones with the little metal plaques on the front (“Fabulous” “Precious” etc.) or the studded or plain stitched leathers. (Yes, I think that stitched leather look is a key factor in quality!)

The just-right colors, though, aren’t always available in these styles. For instance, today I wanted a collar for a ChangingLeaf-eyed cat and had to settle for Lime, which is just a bit too bright and detracts from the lovely eye color.

To my chagrin and frustration, I don’t have a program for making my own collars (though I’ve tried anyway, unsuccessfully!). My collar WISH is that these collars could be made for sale to us…. but with the option, somehow, for the color to be tweaked for what appeals to the owner and the owner's sense of what complements the kitty’s coloring.

Yes! I would love to have an option to apply the word (name!) I want on the collar, too. I have bracelets that come with HUDs for color-changing and word-choosing; surely something like that could be made for the collars - even if it's just a one-time opportunity for each collar.

I would certainly be willing to pay more for such a collar, and be thrilled that I am getting exactly what I want for my [usually perma-petted] kitty!
