Protective Plastic Elizabethan Collar Trixie TX-19480 7.5 cm

The Trixie protective plastic Elizabethan collar TX-19480 7.5 cm is a rigid pet collar designed to prevent animals from licking, biting or otherwise disturbing wounds, bandages and surgical sites. Constructed from lightweight yet sturdy plastic, this 7.5 cm wide collar forms a protective physical barrier around the neck while allowing the animal to move and rest comfortably. It is intended for short-term post-operative care and injury protection in cats and small dogs and can be cleaned and re-used as needed.

Advantages

This protective Elizabethan collar provides reliable mechanical protection without reliance on soft materials that pets can easily compress. Its rigid shape maintains a consistent distance between the mouth and the treated area, reducing the risk of self-inflicted damage or infection. The collar is lightweight for easier wear, simple to attach and remove, and can be wiped clean after use. Its minimal design reduces interference with vision and feeding compared with bulkier alternatives.

How to use

Select the appropriate collar size and place it around the pet’s neck so the wider section surrounds the treated area. Fasten the collar according to the manufacturer’s fastening method to ensure a secure, comfortable fit that prevents the pet from reaching wounds or bandages. Check regularly for signs of chafing, tightness or discomfort and adjust or remove the collar temporarily under supervision for feeding or cleaning if needed.
