Choosing a tag for a Domestic Shorthair

The great Australian moggy comes in every colour, which is convenient, because so do the tags. The rule that matters is weight: 20 mm small, on a breakaway safety collar, light enough that the cat forgets the argument by dinner. The 7 g enamel small or the one-gram Flat Plastic both qualify.

The Fish, the Fish Skeleton and the Mouse are the classic cat jokes; the Fish Bowl is the meta one. Every tag is deep diamond engraved free — name and two numbers fit even on the small — and covered by the Red Dingo Lifetime Guarantee.

Domestic Shorthair tags: common questions

What size pet ID tag does a Domestic Shorthair need?
A light 20 mm small tag suits virtually every Domestic Shorthair — unobtrusive on a slim collar and easy to live with for a cat that roams. Pair the tag with a breakaway (quick-release) collar that opens under pressure if it snags — a light small tag is well matched to that kind of collar.
Is engraving free on Domestic Shorthair tags?
Yes. Every tag at Pet Tags Online includes free deep diamond engraving — your pet's name and your contact details are cut deep into the tag rather than printed on the surface, so the identification stays readable for the life of the tag.
Do Domestic Shorthair tags come with free delivery?
Yes. Delivery is free worldwide on every order, and Red Dingo personalises the delivery envelope with your pet's name, so the parcel arrives addressed to your cat.
Are Domestic Shorthair tags guaranteed?
Yes. Every tag we sell is a genuine Red Dingo tag covered by the Red Dingo lifetime guarantee.
Is a tag or a microchip better for a Domestic Shorthair?
Both — they do different jobs. The chip is permanent proof of ownership; the tag is what lets the neighbour who finds your cat ring you the same evening, no scanner needed.
What do people engrave on cat tags?
Usually the cat's name and one mobile number — the 20 mm tag keeps it light. Some owners add 'INDOOR CAT' on the back so finders know an outdoor stroll means something is wrong.
