    Abstract: The present invention relates to a three-dimensional reflective cat collar whereby the three-dimensional reflective element is such as to promote the reflection of the light while the cat is in a position that is perpendicular to the headlights, such as while the cat is on a street, and also while the cat is in a position that is at an angle to the headlights, such as while the cat is approaching a street.
