[New Product] We've developed a cat collar that's safe for metal allergies!

Hello, this is YUI from Poponeko♪

Summer is just around the corner! We've been having more and more hot days that make you want to just relax in a cool place with your cat.

Apparently, there is a big increase in feline dermatitis during this time of year.

Of particular concern is "metal allergy." Yes, cats can have metal allergies too.

Today, I’d like to introduce our metal-allergy-friendly cat collars, which are safe for those cats to wear!

No metal used, so you can rest easy

A while back, I received a message saying, "My cat can't wear a collar because they have a metal allergy."

I hadn't realized that cats could have metal allergies. When I looked into it, I found that the metal acts as an allergen, causing inflammation wherever it touches the skin.

Since a cat collar is worn all the time, the metal would constantly be in contact with their skin. So, I thought, "Let's make a collar that doesn't use any metal!" and immediately started working on a prototype.

After trying out various metal fasteners, I found that resin was the perfect choice—offering excellent durability and a great look. Now, even cats with metal allergies can wear them safely!

Cat allergies often manifest as dermatitis. It’s best to use something as gentle as possible for items that touch their skin, like a collar.

That’s why our metal-allergy-friendly cat collars are made entirely of organic cotton. They are made from Japan Organic Cotton Association (JOCA) certified cotton fabric, grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers, so they are safe even for cats with delicate skin♪

Available in 4 patterns♪

The texture is smooth and super soft. The beige color also feels very gentle.

Organic cotton is also restricted from chemical treatments like bleaching, so the natural fluffiness of the cotton isn't compromised.

That soft, supple feel is something unique to organic cotton. I absolutely love it.

Our handmade organic cotton cat collars are very gentle, and many cats love them too♪

And for those concerned about keeping their cat collars clean, we recommend our "CLEANSE® x Organic Cotton" collars. They feature antibacterial and antiviral processing, so they can help keep unpleasant odors at bay even during the damp season.

If you're concerned about your cat's skin, please give our organic cotton collars a try!
