Void because, well, just look at him, and shadow because he won’t leave me alone (not complaining in the least).

      Probably not the worst idea honestly, he’s constantly running between my feet anytime I walk across the room. Midnight bathroom runs are a fun time.

        Yeah it’s the reason my indoor void has a collar at all, is to hold a little bell so I don’t injure us both some night tripping over her. I did also write my cell # on it, just in case.

          I do have a bell for both my cats but they haven’t worn them since being kittens. They both absolutely hated the bell and it killed me a little to see them constantly trying to take it off. I could always try again now that they’re older but we’ll see.

            I tried it when she was a kitten and same, she didn’t like it so I took it off. Tried again later with just a breakaway collar, she ignored it. Added a bell, she ignored that too. Although once in awhile (maybe 6 months?) she’ll pull it off just to show me she can. Then I test to be sure her neck hasn’t grown and it’s still a little loose. A breakaway clasp is important for cats in case it snags mid-jump.

              Their collars are breakaway, I remember the pet shop clerk gave us a lecture about it when we said we were new cat owners and weren’t sure everything we’d need. I’ve only had my cats for a little over a year so I do appreciate the advice, I still feel like I’m learning all the time. My only other experience with a pet is my parents’ dog so I’m no expert in having pets in general, so any advice is always nice. Thanks for taking the time to offer some.
