Collar issues...

When buying a regular collar (not a breakaway one), how snuggly is it supposed to fit? I bought Amber a breakaway collar last spring and she lost it this fall. Then I bought her regular one and, by November, she lost that one too. Apparently, she's getting caught on stuff when she roams and this is how she keeps losing her collars. If I buy her regular one, I don't want her to be unable to free herself if she gets caught on something and I don't really want to buy a breakaway one as apparently she'll just lose it. GRR. I really need to move so I don't have to deal with this stuff. lol
I know I keep posting about trivial things, but my family tends to brush me off. Plus, when Amber moves in with me, she'll be my sole responsibility and I've never really took care of a pet completely on my own if that makes sense. Growing up, my parents were always around to make decisions like when they need to go to the vet, etc. Now, all that will be on me.

Breakaway Collars are the best because if they get caught then they wont choke as Leslie said .. They are also good attention getters too .. If little boy does not get enough he takes his collar off ... His also comes with a bell and it freaks me out a bit because then I always know where he is when he has it on ..
Also you want the collar to be loose enough around their neck that you can slide your finger easily in and out of it .. because if you cant it is to tight
I would agree with the breakaway since we had a bad experience with a regular which luckily didn't cause any serious issues just really guilty furparents.
