In the wild, dogs and cats instinctively lick their wounds to help sanitize them, but that’s not always helpful or safe in the domesticated world of stitches, bandages and medication. That's why veterinarians recommend recovery collars: to ensure those healing wounds, stitches and hot spots can heal without interference. Unlike traditional healing cones, the Recovery Collar won't make startling noises when bumped into a wall, or while your pet eats—nor will it get in the way of his peripheral vision. It will also allow him to lie down comfortably, unlike sticky plastic or inflatable collars that may stop your buddy from napping in his favorite position. Although he may initially dislike a recovery collar, the Recovery Collar helps him to adapt quickly—with the addition of positive energy, praise and, of course, tasty treats.

I really appreciated this collar during my kitty’s recovery from abdominal surgery. We only used it for overnights as we were thankfully able to watch her like a hawk during daylight hours. She was much more comfortable in this as opposed to the hard plastic cone from the surgery center, and I do believe it helped her sleep more soundly than the plastic one allowed. Highly recommend.
For the first week I absolutely loved this cone, my car normally refuses to move in a regular cone so this was a great solution. However we are trying to heal a wound on her back foot, and she found a way to bend the cone so she could still lick her back foot.
This collar has no stiffness and did not keep Ollie away from his surgery site what so ever. I was trying an alternative to his cone as he can not get to his food and water at all with the cone. I was really hoping this would work! I’m bummed.
This soft cone was just what we needed to keep our small dog from scratching her eyes. It was easy to put on and off and comfortable for her to wear - and it is cute! I would highly recommend it.
I bought this because my cat had surgery. The cone they gave him was rigid and difficult for him to navigate. He refused to eat. This was a life saver. He could see where he was going and able to sleep comfortably. The one caution is that it can bend back and therefore cat has access to body. This happens after it is worn a while. Maybe it would get better after washing. Bright color so you can find your cat anywhere.
This is a well made product. But where is the Small size? Warning, I tried the Medium and it’s way too big for a small kitty, say 8 pounds or less.
I so wish I'd been ready with this cone for my kittyboy when he had his neutering surgery. It had been a long time since I'd had a cat neutered and the last time I did, collars weren't even suggested. My kitty was crazed by the stiff plastic collar the vet office used, and there was no way he was going to tolerate it. I called to ask a question about the difference between two collars, and the wonderful woman who helped me took care of getting this one to me very quickly. Little guy still didn't want to wear a collar, but this one was the best possible, far more comfortable, and it's washable and reusable as well. Thanks!
My cat tolerates cones well, but not this one. Didn't provide her enough vision. Couldn't/wouldn't jump in it. When she drank, it became so wet and saturated if it dipped in the water, I had to remove it. Took a long time to dry too. Wanted it to work, but a no go from the start.
Post op from ear surgery, we tried 2 other medium cones and were both miserable (one was so big, he was walking on it, but his head wouldn’t fit the size he wouldn’t walk on). My boy is rocking the pink but another color would have been preferred; however, we are both sleeping easier because of this soft, flexible cone. This is also the only one of the three he hasn’t been able to get out of (at least not yet).
I ordered a medium and it had to be a small I got. It did not fit the dimensions stated on the website.
