My cat has had a cut above his eye for over a month so we've finally had to give in and buy a "lampshade" collar which I'm going to put on him tonight. I'm not looking forward to it because I know how much he's going to hate it!! (If only he would listen when I tell him to stop scratching his cut!!!)

Just wondered what experiences other cat (or dog) owners have had with these collars. Did your pet get used to wearing it, or did they hate it? How long did you have to keep it on them for?
