A. Here's how to attach bells, ID tags, and charms to the collar.

1. Check the split rings

  • Bells, ID tags, and charms come with split rings already attached.
  • These split rings are the parts used to attach them to the collar.

2. Attaching to the collar

Normal collar: Thread the split ring through the buckle

Chouchou collar: Thread the split ring through the jump ring

3. How to attach

  • You can open the split ring with your fingers and attach it.
  • For even easier attachment, using the separately sold "Split Ring Opener" is convenient.

4. Requesting attachment at the time of order shipment

If you wish for bells or ID tags to be attached before shipment, please indicate this in the "Notes" section on the order screen.

A. Yes, this is possible at the time of your order. We can change the buckle to a color different from the product image. Please enter the following message in the "Notes to shop" field on the cart screen when placing your order.

A. We apologize, but we do not offer repair services. We sincerely regret to inform you that we do not perform repairs as there is a possibility that doing so could compromise the original quality (such as strength) of the product.

At Poponeko, we prioritize the safety and comfort of cats above all else, and therefore officially "do not recommend" attaching anti-loss tags (smart tags) such as AirTags to collars.

We understand the deep love of owners who wish to prepare for the unlikely event of their cat escaping or getting lost, but we ask that you refrain from using them on your cat for the following safety reasons:

[Four Reasons Why We Do Not Recommend It]

  • 1. It can cause strain and stress on your cat's neck.
    Poponeko collars are made with a focus on "lightness" and "gentleness" so that cats forget they are even wearing them. An AirTag alone weighs approximately 11g, and even more with a dedicated case. This weight can put a significant strain on a small cat's neck, potentially causing hair loss, skin inflammation, or health problems due to stress.
  • 2. There is a risk of life-threatening accidents, such as accidental ingestion of button batteries.
    AirTags contain button batteries (coin-cell lithium batteries). If the safety adjuster activates and the collar comes off, and your cat plays with and chews on the AirTag, accidentally ingesting the battery, it could lead to an extremely serious, life-threatening accident, such as chemical burns in the digestive tract.
  • 3. It may affect the function of the safety buckle (safety collar).
    Poponeko collars use a "safety buckle" that releases when strong force is applied if the collar gets caught on something. Attaching an AirTag or its case could cause the collar to come off more easily due to the weight in daily use, or conversely, the case could get caught on an obstacle, preventing the collar from releasing properly and increasing the risk of serious accidents such as strangulation.
  • 4. Apple also does not recommend it for use on pets.
    Apple, the developer of AirTag, has officially stated that "AirTag is a device for finding 'items' such as keys and wallets, and not for tracking pets or children."

[A Request from Poponeko]
The safest and most reliable measure to protect your cat from getting lost is to "thoroughly implement measures to prevent escapes indoors."
And in case your cat does get outside, we recommend "attaching an ID tag (or name sticker, etc.) to the collar" so that whoever finds them can contact you immediately, and also "having a microchip implanted" at a veterinary clinic as a more reliable form of identification.

Poponeko will continue to create safe and stress-free collars that cats do not dislike. We kindly ask for your understanding and cooperation in protecting the safety of your beloved family cat.
