How to Use and Assemble an E-Collar
Assembling an Elizabethan collar may appear complicated at first, but it is essential for post-operative pet care. Our clear plastic cones allow better peripheral vision compared to opaque or fabric cones, helping your pet adapt faster and reducing anxiety during recovery.
Assembly Instructions:
Step 1: Attachment
Take out your pet's regular collar. Attach the e-collar to the regular collar by wrapping the two attachment strips around it. The side with the embossed lines and logo should face outward.

Step 3: Securing
Align the precut slits on the two sides. Insert the long attachment tab into the slots in an "in-out-in" fashion to lock it securely.

Step 4: Safety Check
Ensure the collar is not too tight. You should be able to fit two fingers comfortably between the collar and the neck. Verify that it does not restrict breathing or swallowing.
