Unfortunatly he tries to 'kill' the collar resulting in many back flips and rolls, I keep taking it off as soon as he shows discomfort as i dont want him to get stressed. I do have a kitten safety collar so if he does catch it, it immediatly releases to stop strangulation. Im not too sure how to go about this one
