Best AirTag Collars for Pets: Start With the Right Size

The AirTag Collar for Cats & Dogs comes in four sizes. Measure around your pet's neck and pick the size whose range includes that measurement.

Size Neck measurement Strap width Suggested for
S 22 to 32 cm 2.5 cm Cats
M 30 to 40 cm 3 cm Small dogs
L 34 to 42 cm 3 cm Medium dogs
XL 38 to 50 cm 3 cm Large dogs

Getting a Good Fit

A collar should sit snugly without squeezing. A common check is to slip two fingers under the strap: if they fit, the collar is about right. Puppies and kittens grow, so check the fit as they do.

The strap is nylon with a reflective design, and the AirTag sits in a holder built into the collar. Remember that the AirTag itself is sold separately by Apple.

If your pet is between sizes, look at the neck range first and then at strap width: the cat size has a slimmer 2.5 cm strap, while the dog sizes use a 3 cm strap.

Colours and Style

Choose from purple, pink, orange, blue, black and red. The cat sizes include a cat-shaped buckle and a removable bell, which you can take off if your cat prefers it that way.

A matching colour is a nice way to tell collars apart in a home with more than one pet, such as a cat in S and a dog in L.
