With that additional sneaking comes the opportunity for your cat's collar to get caught on things. Outdoor cats tend to do a lot more sneaking around in potentially dangerous places than indoor cats.

This is by far the most important feature to consider for any cat collar, especially if you have a cat that is an indoor/outdoor or full on outdoor cat. Indoor cat: I still recommend a safety mechanism, but if you are constantly with your cat and you don't have many obstacles indoors then a collar without a safety mechanism may be ok.Indoor/Outdoor cat: You should think about having a collar with a safety mechanism.Outdoor cat: You should definitely consider a safety mechanism.Relaxes All Day: This type of cat should be ok without a safety release.Super Curious / Loves Exploring: Your should definitely consider a safety release.
You should make your decision based on the habits and behavior or your cat as well as the environment your cat spends most of his or her time in. If the likelihood of your cat getting stuck seems low, but the likelihood of your cat pawing the collar off seems high, then you may want to go for a more traditional buckle style option instead of a safety release. One other item you may wish to factor in is how much additional safety comes from having a collar that won't fall off versus the likelihood of your cat getting stuck on something. These features are becoming far more common, but they aren't quite yet the norm as they are with nylon collars. Note that I specifically called out every collar in this list with a breakaway latch or an elastic band. This means if your feline friend gets stuck they can get injured or even worse. They key difference between many leather collars and many nylon collars is that a lot of leather collars still don't come equipped with a full on safety release or an elastic band. You just need to make an educated purchase based on the circumstances of your particular cat. Leather collars just as safe as any other type of collar on the market for cats.
