Cat tags
Personalised cat ID tags
Genuine Red Dingo cat ID tags with free deep diamond engraving, free worldwide delivery and the Red Dingo Lifetime Guarantee. A light small tag suits every cat — add your cat’s name and your number and preview it before you order. From fish and flowers to a little crown for the cat who rules the house, every cat name tag is made to order and posted to your door anywhere in Australia.
A light tag and a safe collar
A small 20 mm tag suits virtually every cat. Even larger breeds like the Maine Coon and the Ragdoll are best in a small tag — the choice is about comfort rather than the cat’s size, keeping the tag light and unobtrusive on a slim collar.
For safety, cats should wear a breakaway (quick-release) collar that opens under pressure if it snags. A light small tag is well matched to that kind of collar, so your cat can carry a name and a contact number without the weight of a larger tag.

What to engrave on your cat’s tag
A small cat tag has room for a few clear lines, so choose them well. Your cat’s name on the front and your mobile number on the back is the classic layout, and the one a neighbour can use straight away.
Useful extras are a second phone number, your suburb or a short note. “Indoor cat” is one of the most helpful lines you can engrave, because it tells a finder your cat is lost, not just out exploring, so they know to call you. “I am microchipped” tells them a vet can scan your cat.
Fewer, larger characters read best on a small tag. The preview shows exactly how each line will look before you order.
The best tags for cats and kittens
For most cats the lightest tags are the most comfortable: flat plastic, flat stainless steel and small enamel designs all sit easily on a slim breakaway collar. Glitter and Swarovski crystal tags suit the cat with a little more sparkle, still in the small size.
Kittens can wear a small tag once they are comfortable on a lightweight breakaway collar. Check the collar fit as they grow, and keep the tag the same.
Every tag is a genuine Red Dingo tag, finished with deep diamond engraving and covered by the Red Dingo Lifetime Guarantee. Australian orders are posted from Red Dingo’s Sydney workshop in an envelope addressed to your cat by name.
Common questions
- What size ID tag is best for a cat?
- A small 20 mm tag suits virtually every cat, including larger breeds like the Maine Coon and Ragdoll — the choice is about comfort rather than the cat’s size, keeping the tag light and unobtrusive on a slim collar.
- Is a hanging tag safe for a cat?
- 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, so your cat can still carry a name and a phone number safely.
- What should I engrave on a cat tag?
- Most owners put the cat’s name on one side and a phone number on the other, and you can add a second number or a short note such as “I am microchipped” or “indoor cat”. You will see exactly how it reads before you order.
- Will the engraving last and what does it cost?
- Engraving is free and uses superior deep diamond engraving — never laser, stamped or printed — so it cannot scratch, fade or rub off and stays readable for the life of your cat, covered by the Red Dingo Lifetime Guarantee. Delivery is free worldwide — with tracked AusPost Parcel Post and Express Post options within Australia — and Red Dingo even addresses the envelope to your cat by name.
- Does an indoor cat need an ID tag?
- Yes. Indoor cats are the ones most likely to panic and hide if they slip out, and a finder has no way of knowing your cat should be inside. A tag with your number, and ideally “Indoor cat”, gets them home quickly.
- Will a tag bother my cat?
- Most cats settle within a day or two. A small tag is light on a slim breakaway collar, and flat plastic is the lightest of all.
