A "Wafu" handmade touch to add color to your cat. A chirimen fabric cat collar.

Hello, I'm YOKO from Poponeko!

While vibrant colors and bold Scandinavian patterns are lovely, I find myself drawn to "Japanese patterns" after all.

Traditional Japanese colors, with motifs of plants, flowers, and seasons. As I gaze at the intricate designs, what comes to mind are cats.

Japanese-patterned cat collars seem to suit Japanese cats perfectly.

So, this time, I'd like to introduce the charm of our "Round String Cat Collar" made from Japanese chirimen fabric.

Elegant Chirimen Fabric Cat Collars

Many Japanese sundries you see in general stores use "chirimen" fabric. Their vibrant patterns and colors are truly adorable.

At Poponeko, we've also created round string cat collars using high-quality Japanese chirimen rayon. Its smooth, silk-like texture and subtle sheen give it an elegant impression.

The round string type minimizes contact with the skin, making it less likely to cause collar baldness. And of course, it's lightweight to avoid burdening your cat.

Japanese craftsmen meticulously handcraft each collar to perfection.

Sophisticated Yuzen Patterns and Charming Four Seasons Flower Patterns

Poponeko's round string cat collars come in 16 colors in total. We offer 4 sophisticated Yuzen patterns, 4 charming Four Seasons flower patterns, 6 simple plain colors, and other patterns like Arabesque and Fawn spot.

The Yuzen patterns come with a "koban" (oval coin) charm, and the Four Seasons flower patterns come with a "fishbone" charm! Both also include a golden bell. Since both can be easily removed, please don't force your cat to wear the bell if they dislike the sound.

The size is free size. By adjusting the knots on both sides, it can accommodate neck sizes from 11 to 23 cm. Weighing approximately 5g, this thin 5mm diameter string-type cat collar is safe for cats of all ages.

Kittens, senior cats, and long-haired cats can all wear matching collars!

Veterinarian Dr. Korin (Rondbell Animal Clinic), popular on YouTube, chose our "Round String Cat Collar" for his beloved cats, Zen and Kotetsu!

He mentioned that he had been putting collars on them since they were kittens, but at some point, their fur started to fall out, so he stopped using collars ever since.

However, as this collar is a cat collar that is less likely to cause collar baldness, he tried Poponeko's cat collar, and they reportedly didn't show any signs of discomfort or scratching, as if they didn't even notice they were wearing it.

That's right!

Many cats who had trouble with other collars are fine with Poponeko's collars. We are so happy that Zen and Kotetsu liked it, as we are extremely particular about its lightness and gentleness!

Also recommended for a cat's first collar

Japanese patterns suit cats very well. The 5mm diameter round string, with its subtly visible Japanese pattern, beautifully adorns your cat.

They look a bit more dignified, and it makes me want to wear a kimono again after a long time (laughs).

This "Round String Cat Collar" has been very popular since its launch. Although production couldn't keep up and it was sometimes out of stock, I'm relieved that we've successfully delivered it to everyone.

Since it's a round string made from soft chirimen fabric, there's no need to worry about rubbing or stuffiness. It's also recommended for a cat's first collar.

While you can't attach a name tag sticker, you can attach an ID tag. Enjoy coordinating it with bells and charms!
