The lovely Lupin Houdini of the Valleys (almost!)
I prefer my cats to wear safety collars for much the same reasons. I've been unfortunate enough to lose two cats to the road who were referred back to me because of the kindness of strangers using the number held on their collars. With Tinks, he wouldn't wear a collar, under any circumstance. In fact he even had a trick where, if Ross was playing a bit ruff with him, and wouldn't stop when Tinks yelled, Tinks could "de-collar" Ross in an instant, and would leave it on the carpet where he would stare defiantly at Ross as if to say "There - you dunt belongs ter anybuddy now! You'se a Outcat"
My beautiful lost boys.
They did make me smile. (Still do, bless their paws)
