The name

桜 sakura means cherry blossom.

桜 sakura is the cherry blossom, and in Japan it is shorthand for something lovely that does not last very long. A fitting name for anything you attempt to put on a cat.

Every word we use, explained

Why it exists

Most cat collars look like they came from a pet aisle. This one is soft plaid cotton with a matching bow or bandana, and it does not.

The part that actually matters is the catch. It is a breakaway, and that is not optional. If your cat snags the collar on a branch, a fence, or a cupboard handle, it opens under pressure and lets go. A collar that does not do this is a genuine hazard, whoever made it.

If your cat is wearing a collar right now, go and check whether it releases. We would rather you did that than bought anything from us.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs itself

Fit it snug

Two fingers should slide under the strap, no more, no less.

It holds all day

The catch stays shut for an ID tag, a bell, and general handsomeness.

A snag lets go

Real pressure pops the breakaway open, and the cat walks free.

Questions

The things people ask

What does sakura mean?

桜 sakura is Japanese for cherry blossom.

Is the Sakura Collar Set breakaway?

Yes, on every style. The catch releases under pressure so a snagged collar lets go instead of holding your cat in place.

How should a cat collar fit?

Two fingers should slide under it comfortably. Re-check the fit monthly, and more often on a cat that is still growing.

What is the difference between the Duo Set, Bow Tie and Bandana?

The Duo Set includes two pieces. The Bow Tie and Bandana are sold individually. All three use the same breakaway strap.

Can I attach a lead to a breakaway collar?

No. A breakaway collar is built to release under pressure, which is the opposite of what a lead needs. Use a proper harness for walking.

Can the collar be washed?

The bow and the bandana slide off the strap for washing.

Is it suitable for kittens?

Not for kittens under six months.

7 to 15 days, stated plainly.
