They are surprisingly strong. At least the one Kaji has. I've taken it off him and given it some tugs and it doesn't break off. It takes a little more force for it to fall off. It's a little hard to explain Kaji's collar because it holds up well but in an emergency it just falls right off. Example situation:
Kaji was running around the inside of my car, freaking out because we were in a new place he had never been in. He somehow managed to hang himself on my handbrake!
Before I could react the cat collar just broke apart and Kaji was fine, he landed on the floor by the gas peddals (car was off) and he went right on with his pacing and panicking. It all happened in less than half a second.
I use to think just like you, what's the point if it's just going to fall off? I guess my new way of thinking is, it's just another chance to get him back. The chip is one way, but the tags are quicker. And, in case of any emergencies (like the hanging situation) he's still safe from harm.
