El-cheapo cat tag
01 August 2007
Our cat has the annoying habit of losing his collar on a regular basis. This also means losing the engraved metal pet tag attached to it, which (outrageously) costs about three times as much as the collar itself and is much more hassle to replace.
I finally lost patience and made him this plastic nametag using a CD marker pen, a small metal key ring and a piece of plastic cut from the wall of an empty vitamin tablet bottle. [Details obscured for privacy.]
Footnote: The little bugger lost this collar the day after this picture was taken, just a week after he lost the last one. Fortunately I had plenty more plastic to make another tag. A homemade collar next perhaps...
