Feather-Light Cat cone
Conventional Cat cones were heavy and stiff, making it difficult for the pet to “bump into furniture and get through”, “tip over the entire bowl when eating," climb stairs, and sleep.Let the move however they want by using our Feather-Light Cat cone! Because it is light and soft, your cats can go about their normal life without restricting movement.The unique separate cushion structure reduces impact to the neck, allowing cats to use it safely and securely.

Reasons why your cats will love it:
Soft enough to be bent 180 degrees
Unique design secures the range of motion around the neck, allowing cats to eat, nap, and use the toilet as usual.

Development Story
My cat became ill and wore Cat cone, and the pain of wearing the Cat cone combined with the pain of being sick made him lose his energy rapidly. We developed Cat cone for cats that could be worn comfortably for our beloved cats together with our cat employees, and it was the origin of Nekozuki's product development.

How to choose a Feather-Light Cat cone
1. Select by type:
You can choose from four types according to your cat's situation: Cloth-Soft, Cloth-Hard, Transparent-Soft, and Transparent-Hard.
*What is with core (around the neck)?
Feather-Light Cat cone has only cotton around the neck and no core.
However, only the full-length type has a core around the neck to keep the collar high without making it saggy around the neck.
Select by location of affected area
Select by the position of the affected area
Feather-Light Cat cone comes in 7 sizes: Normal (3S, SS, S, M) and Long (3S Long, SS Long, S Long).
Affected area Recommended Length
Head/Face: Long
Normal, because there is a possibility that the legs may reach the affected area
Long type is recommended since the legs may reach the affected area.
If the affected area is around the chin, some cats can use the Normal Type without any problem.
Neck to upper stomach: Normal
Legs and tail: Long
Some cats may have their face reach the affected area, so the Long Type is highly recommended.
The "Feather-Light Cat cone Transparent-Soft" provides a clear view and reduces stress in the cat's daily life, but the affected area is visible, and there is a possibility that the collar may come in contact with the affected area as the cat tries its best to groom its fur.
If this is a concern, a "Feather-Light Cat cone/cloth" may be less likely to touch the affected area. Please choose the right one for your cat's condition.

Customers' Feedback
After surgery
“I bought this in a hurry after my cat's surgery, because she was hitting me so hard with her hospital collar that she even knocked over the whole bowl of food. I bought this collar in a panic after the surgery and it seems to have relieved her stress so much that she runs up the cat tower with the collar on.”
I lent her an Cat cone from the hospital
“I lent her an Cat cone from the hospital, but she couldn't climb up and down the stairs! I searched in panic and found this one! It is indeed for cats. It seems to be quite comfortable.”
I couldn't watch it because it looked like it was having trouble moving
“The plastic collar I got from the hospital looked like it was hard for the cat to move, and I couldn't stand to see it in trouble. After I replaced it with this collar, he is now able to jump around the room and play as usual.”
Wearing it straightforwardly with little or no reluctance
“I was looking for a collar that would be easy to put on without resistance, and I found this product. First of all, the material is soft, and he put it on without hesitation.”
