Thanks, Gidget is in that same weight range. Where did you get the cat collar and is the quick release something special I should look for?

hi! Petco. The quick release is in case they get suck on something, the collar pops off, safety measure one of the long term members had recommended. I love it and it actually did pop off of Ella once, so it works.

I keep collars on mine for identification (they are also microchipped). When I take them out on a leash I put harnesses on them and attach the leash to the harness.

What kind of harness do you use? Right now I'm using a Puppia which is great but thinking about ordering a buddy belt in leather. Have you used one? Gidget is in the 3 1/2 to 4 lb range. Just wondering if the BB would work for her.

Hi- I used to use puppia and loved but my boys head is a little bigger then his body lol so I just switched to buddy belts for them-love! I bought size 2 and size 2.5- they both fit both if the since they are adjustable. I would go to kristin from wfields from this board.

Thanks, will do for the BB. Think I'll run to PetSmart first of the week and check on another cat collar for her. The one she has is okay but not good enough for my little diva.

One more question. Do you use them over sweaters in the winter time and does the size make a difference.

To find the silk collars and harnesses go to the "Yorkie products for sale" and you can go thru the link Chatties mom has posted there.

Don't use a collar please. I have an addiction to buying harnesses like you and my wallet wouldn't believe. And my favorite so far is called the Quick Fit by Ezydog. It doesn't rest on their throat or neck at all, and they seem to love it...my Izzy doesn't hack even when she pulls and that used to be a major issue. Not anymore though....happy hunting...
