All Four Paws Comfy Cone Pet Cone for Dogs, Cats, Medium, Black - Comfortable Soft Dog Cone Collar Alternative for After Surgery, Wound Care, Spay, Neuter - Dog and Cat Recovery Elizabethan-Collar

This has been perfect for our lab/collie mix dog. She's about 48lbs and we got the Large. Fits her perfectly so she can't get at the hot spots we're trying to have treated during this allergy season. It's a little more expensive than some of the other cones, but so far it has been durable, she's comfortable and has been able to sleep in it fine, and the velcro is STRONG, so she's not able to just toss it off. Be forewarned - the velcro is very durable...she had her head on my husband's feet at one point, and got stuck...the velcro stuck to his socks. Which for entertainment purposes was hilarious, but it is something to watch out for. Like anything, dogs shouldn't be unsupervised. But all in all, worth every penny!

This cone is great. It is soft, so when my dog bumps into walls or my legs, it doesn’t scrape the wall or hurt me like the original plastic cone from the vet did. The stiff plastic inserts keep my dog from licking and scratching.

At one time or another dog owners will probably have to humiliate their dog by making them wear an "Elizabethan Collar" to keep them from scratching or licking surgical wounds. Our pug Spanky wore one, of course, after he got neutered and did quite well with it. But I hated the bulky plastic design. When recently we decided to get another one to prevent from licking some spots of irritated skin, I opted for this Comfy Cone. It looked a bit easier to use and not to mention, more comfortable. The Small Comfy Cone is designed for pets with necks measuring 10 to 14 inches around and 5.5 inches from neck. It just barely fits around my pugs neck. It has 3 Velcro straps on either side of the cone as well as a Velcro tab. With Spanky, we use the Velcro tab and press it on the first strip of Velcro on the other side. It also has little tabs which enable you to fit it to the animal's collar, but we don't use those. We only use this collar for short periods of time when we notice him starting to lick his tender spots. It's quick and easy to put on, so it works really well for us in this situation. The collar is also available in medium, large, and extra large sizes. The length from the neck is just perfect. It's not as long as the plastic E-collar he got from his vets. Spanky was always bumping into everything with his "satellite dish" as we called it. With his Comfy Collar, he doesn't bang into as many things. On the negative side, this collar, totally blocks their peripheral vision. I would advise using with caution outside of the house for that reason. Another nice feature is this cone folds flat so it's easily stored. I ended up throwing away his first plastic Elizabethan collar because it was too bulky to easily store. Spanky also is able to take naps with it on as it flattens out a bit when he lays down. The collar is easy to clean. I wipe it off on the inside with a damp towel. My one gripe is that the Velcro strips are dog hair magnets. Pugs are notorious shedders and so, of course, the Velcro strip is covered with Spanky's hair. The good news is that he doesn't have longer hair like a poodle or other breeds, so I don't have to worry about his hair getting stuck in there and then ripping it out when I take off the collar. Overall, a very good product and a better choice than a plastic E-collar.

absolutely pleased with this product. (size small for 13lb cat and could not have been any smaller and fit) lots of attention to detail and over-engineering. would have paid twice the price and still considered it a bargain. my cat really does notice the difference between this and the several other's i have tried. he relaxes way more with it on than the others.. it is obviously more comfortable for him. the loops for the collar.. the removable stays.. the cover for the unused velcro strip.. the tab closure.. all well thought out. this collar is leaps and bounds above the others, and i have tried 4 different ones in addition to the comfy collar. being able to fold back the collar so the cat can eat and drink absolutely does work. you can leave in all the stays or just leave in the ones that suit your cat's purpose. or leave them all out. this collar is totally configurable for your cat's situation. i suspect some of the neg reviews are due to overall frustration from having an animal that needs something like this in the first place. true sizing can be a challenge, but that is not due to design, but to the physiological diversity of cats in general. hey if it doesn't fit, go to the next size. it is obviously a challenge for all brands, as i see none have a 5 star rating. the comfy collar deserves a 5 star rating, though.. it really does. this is not just some cheap peace of flat plastic. as for the visibility issue.. meh. my cat could see no better with the "clear" collars (which are not truly visibility clear - look thru one and see). he acted no different from having the blurry vision which the clear collars offer and the opacity of the comfy collar. regarding the collar being heavy.. i just don't see it. this collar weighs no more than the other four flat plastic collars i purchased. my cat holds his head up just as high with this one as the others. actually, since he is more comfortable in the comfy collar, his movements and posture are more natural. of course, no cat wearing any kind of a head covering is going to be his normal graceful self. cats will always exaggerate the effect of anything added to their body. i paired the comfy collar with a cat harness. what a great system. you can leave the comfy collar more loose around the neck because it is connected to the harness via loops. just perfect. and unlike one other reviewer, it was simple for me to remove and replace the stays while the cat was wearing the collar. you just have to push them from the opposite end from the exit hole. one custom addition i did have to add (and i would likes to see comfy collar come up with something like this) was a neck band below the collar to prevent neck scratching. my cat was scratching his neck raw. i just took a cottage cheese tub and cut the bottom off and put it around his neck.. then put the comfy collar on. the bell of the tub rides on his shoulder and the comfy collar kind of just funnels in to the other end of the tub. the tub thingy is loose enough that it just spins when he scratches it, yet will not come off because of how the comfy collar bells out. anyway it solved the neck scratching problem. i know the folks at comfy collar could come up with something way better than my poor idea.. maybe a little wide band type collar made out of the same material as the comfy that velcros in place and used in conjunction with their collar... or maybe an extension that velcros into place. anyway, the comfy plus harness and my tub has my cat on the mend! i very highly recommend this solution for your cat or dog.

I was looking for a soft cone for my dog due to his recent eye surgery. I initially thought the plastic cone from the vet would be fine for the 10 days he needed it, but on the first day I noticed my dog bumping into everything and knocking over chairs, not to mention the sharp edges of the plastic cone. He was clearly very uncomfortable. I wanted something that was soft and easy to put on and take off, and this cone was exactly what I was looking for. My dog was much more comfortable wearing it and bumped into far fewer objects. I highly recommend a soft cone over a plastic cone.

Good quality, looks to be a comfy collar, but sadly I had to return as the size ( Medium Extra Long ), was too small for my Irish Setter. As it came from abroad it was a bit of a flaff to return, which was the only reason I did'nt reorder. Tried everywhere but it was'nt available in uk.

Per un pastore tedesco maschio ho comprato misura 25cm. Se chiude malapena, ma ho preferito così in modo que non fosse troppo ingombrante con la misura successiva. Resta belo aderente al collo, il cane non riesce a sfilarlo e non ho nemmeno usato con il collare. Le stecche, nel mio caso, non sono state necessarie. Più comodo senza. Avevo già usato in passato quelle gonfiabili. Sono senza dubbio i più confortevoli. Ma non sono adatti a tutti i casi. Questo invece è perfetto per ogni necessità. Un po' caro, ma è un prodotto di qualità. Consigliato l'acquisto.

We're on our third comfy cone; loving the wider section of velcro with our recent purchase .These are very well made and stand up to our Ridgebacks who are tough on them while their split ears heal. Stitching is quality as we've never had an issue with it coming apart at the seams. Very warm and comfortable; once they settle in they're content in them as that double as a pillow. You'll need to have a collar as it's not included. It We have 2 Ridgebacks, approximately 90 lbs each, large is the perfect fit for them. This is the only cone we will buy now. It stands up to the heavy scratching while their ears heal. Calms them down as well; helpful if your dog has anxiety.

Se coloca muy facil y mi perro esta mucho mas comodo que con los collarines de plastico. Buen material y duradero.

Our dog had developed a nasty allergy to something all around his head and had been scratching so much he was starting to go bald (not to mention the effect on his skin!). We resorted to using a standard plastic 'cone' to stop him scratching as nothing else seemed to work, but he quickly developed an aversion to it - not because of the cone itself, but because he's so little ( a shih tzu) that he bumps into everything and can't see over the edge of it, not to mention the fact that it weighs so much that whichever way his head moves, the cone overbalances it to his max range of movement. On advice from his vet, we looked up the comfy cone and were rather worried by the colour, since he's a rescue dog and generally terrified of anything big and black (made for some interesting mornings when he saw dad in his black dressing gown when we first got him!). However, at our wits' end with the plastic one, we took the plunge. It was a little on the small side, but to give an example of the reaction...we've just ordered the next size up! All our worries were for naught, as he absolutely loves the thing. The small is more suited to a small terrier or chihuahua than a stocky shih tzu, so I would recommend anyone looking for one for the same breed to make sure to consider the size of their little gal or fella. If he/she is on the thin side, a small would fit well, however if he/she is on the bulkier end of the shih tzu spectrum, a medium would be better. The 'comfy' in the name is well deserved, as it's nice and soft, but has stiffeners in it to keep it rigid enough to restrict movement, and it has foam between the fabric layers to add stability without reducing comfort. There are lots of strips of velcro for adjustment, and it even has a spare strip to cover exposed velcro - a very considerate touch. The rim, while looking white in the picture, is actually a reflective strip of the kind you'd find on high-vis vests, and there are elastic loops around the base to slip a collar through. This makes it very convenient as it means that, if they have trouble drinking, you can simply unfasten and refasten it without removing it altogether. Our little guy's been prancing around like the king of the hill in his new collar, all full of pride as he looks so smart in it, and the colour actually seems to be calming him rather than bothering. All in all, I'd highly recommend this over a plastic cone, and am keeping the smaller one for nighttime use (since it's just large enough so it'll work well as a cushion) but buying a new larger one for daytime. Looking forward to it arriving!
