It’s not everyone who buys a cat collar. The market is generally limited to those who possess a cat. This currently includes me, sort of. For several weeks, it (her) has spent most of its time either with me or my neighbour. We are convinced, however, that it has an owner as it’s healthy, well fed and often turns up with a faint aroma of tobacco. In order to try and discover who this might be I resolved to buy a collar with some kind of tag that would request the owner to get in touch. Then at least we might know what it should be called (at the moment its working title is ‘FC’ - ‘farting cat’ - due to the disagreeable smells it regularly produces).
After a brief search on the net I came across Kitty Collars. Their attractive, simple website describes a wide range of collars on offer. As my requirement was a little unusual, I decided to phone for help. After hearing my explanation, Marla was most helpful and suggested what type and colour would be best. She was clearly concerned about the cat and had a good deal of practical advice to offer. We agreed that it be printed with ‘Do I Have A Home?’ followed by my telephone number.
Ordering online was very easy and shortly after an email arrived, not only confirming the purchase but also having detailed advice as to how the collar should be fitted for each size of cat. Marla also wrote again to clarify one or two points and to tell me that the order would be processed immediately. The collar arrived the very next day and very smart it looks too. As yet there have been no phone calls but at least my conscience has been eased.
The great thing about the internet is that as well as having giants such as Google, Microsoft and Apple, there’s also a myriad of smaller businesses which have been given access to a global market through the power of the web. And the service can be every bit as personal as your long remembered corner shop. Thank you Kitty Colours, for a happy shopping experience!
