Characteristics and benefits

• Opaque material: blocks direct view of the treated area, reducing the pet's stress by not seeing the wound.
• Classic Elizabethan design: truncated cone shape that prevents access to the head, neck, trunk and forelimbs.
• Pack of 10 units: allows for frequent changes without the need for washing, maintaining hygiene during prolonged treatments.
• Light and flexible: made of soft plastic material that does not irritate the skin or hinder basic mobility.
• Secure closure: Velcro or integrated buckle system (depending on the model) that adjusts to the neck contour without tightening.
• Easy placement: pre-formed design that quickly adapts to the neck, ideal for veterinary clinics or home use.

How to use

Place the collar around your pet's neck, adjusting the clasp so it fits snugly but allows normal breathing (you should be able to fit a finger between the collar and your pet's neck). Use throughout the recovery period or as directed by your veterinarian. Do not use if your pet has open wounds on its neck or if the collar causes irritation. Remove only under supervision for feeding or hygiene. See the package insert for specific fitting instructions and recommended duration of use.

Indicated for

Small to medium-sized dogs and cats (approximately 2-8 kg) that require post-surgical protection, wound treatment, dermatitis, skin infections, or prevention of self-mutilation. Not suitable for brachycephalic breeds (such as bulldogs or Persians) due to potential respiratory difficulties.

FAQ

How do I know if size 7,5 is the right size for my pet?

Measure your pet's neck circumference and compare it to the collar's inner diameter (7,5 cm). It should fit snugly but not tightly; if your pet's neck measures more than 8 cm, choose a larger size. Kruuse offers progressive sizes up to 12 cm for larger breeds.

Can I reuse the opaque Elizabethan collar?

This pack is for single use (disposable). If you need to reuse it, you can clean it with mild soap and water, but the opaque material may lose effectiveness after several washes. For longer treatments, it is recommended to change it every 3-5 days.

Is it safe for cats?

Yes, as long as it fits properly. Cats can get stressed with Elizabethan collars; the opaque design reduces anxiety by not showing the wound. Supervise your cat for the first few hours to make sure it doesn't try to remove it or get caught on furniture.

How long should my dog ​​or cat use it?

It depends on the reason: post-operative (7-14 days), wound treatment (until healed), or dermatitis (according to veterinary guidelines). Do not remove the collar prematurely without consulting your veterinarian, even if your pet seems comfortable.

Can I use this collar along with other topical veterinary products?

Yes, the collar does not interfere with creams, sprays, or dressings. In fact, its purpose is to prevent the pet from licking or removing the applied product. Apply the treatment as directed and put the collar on immediately afterward.

How to store unused units?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the package closed to prevent deformation. Remaining units have a shelf life of 2 years from the manufacturing date indicated on the pack.
