Wholesale cat collars are custom cat collars produced in bulk for a brand, a retailer, or a campaign, with your colors, your logo, and your identity on every unit. PrideBites manufactures them to order rather than pulling them from stock, so the collar carries your brand instead of somebody else's. Minimums are set per size and per design, and standard production runs 6 to 8 weeks before shipping.

Why add cat collars to a branded pet line?

Most brands that move into pet start with dogs and stop there. That leaves the cat side of the household unserved, and it is not a small side. According to the American Pet Products Association, 95 million U.S. households own a pet, and Americans spent $158 billion on them in 2024 with $165 billion projected for 2026.

Cat owners are used to being an afterthought in branded merchandise. A well made collar in your colors reads as a brand that actually thought about them. That is the whole argument for pet gifting in the first place: pet parents do not just buy products, they buy belonging.

For a retailer, cat collars are also an easy assortment extension. They are small, they ship efficiently relative to their value, and they sit naturally beside cat toys and other accessories you may already carry.

What can be customized on a wholesale cat collar?

Everything that makes it yours. Color, pattern, logo placement, and the overall identity of the piece are all specified in your brief. PrideBites builds the collar to that spec rather than adding a sticker to a generic item.

Cat collars sit inside the wider "For a Walk" family, which also covers dog collars, leashes, harnesses, and car seat belts. If you are building a full accessories program rather than a single item, it is usually more efficient to scope the whole family at once.

How does the minimum order quantity work?

The minimum is per size and per design. Mixing sizes to reach a minimum is not permitted, and that rule catches people out more than any other part of the process.

In practice it means a program of one collar design in two sizes is two minimums, not one. The planning lesson is to go narrow and deep rather than wide and thin on a first order. Pick the design you are most confident in, commit to it properly, and add variants once you have sell through data.

How long does production take?

Standard production is 6 to 8 weeks. That is manufacturing time only and does not include shipping, so build transit into your date rather than treating the production window as a delivery date. PrideBites ships via UPS and DHL.

If you are targeting a season, a store reset, or an event, count backwards from the date you need stock in hand and add the shipping leg. Brands that miss a window almost always miss it by forgetting that second step.

Wholesale cat collars for resell or for a campaign

There are two ways brands use these. The first is resell: you add a branded cat collar to your assortment and sell it, online or in store, seasonally or year round. The second is engage: you produce a run as a giveaway, a gift with purchase, or an influencer send, and the collar does marketing work rather than revenue work.

The two paths change the brief. A resell program cares about margin, size curve, and repeat orders. A campaign program cares about arrival dates, packaging, and how the piece photographs. Say which one you are doing in your first message and the mockup comes back closer to what you actually need.

How do you start a wholesale cat collar order?

Send a brief and PrideBites returns a free custom mockup, typically within about 48 hours, at no cost and no commitment. You see the collar in your colors with your logo before you decide anything.

PrideBites has been doing this since 2013 from Austin, Texas, for more than 500 brand partners, with over a million custom pet products shipped. Private label is available, and free samples can be arranged through an account executive.

Frequently asked questions

Do you make cat collars as well as dog collars?

Yes. The cat range covers collars alongside plush catnip toys and catnip wand toys. Cat collars are built to the same custom specification as the dog collars in the "For a Walk" family, so a mixed feline and canine program is straightforward to scope.

Can I order a small test run first?

Minimums apply per size and per design, so there is a floor. The usual approach for a first order is a single design in a single size, which keeps you at one minimum while you test demand before widening the range.

Can I put my logo on the collar itself?

Yes. Logo, colors, and pattern are all part of the custom spec rather than add ons decided later. Placement is confirmed on the free mockup, so you approve exactly how the branding sits on the finished collar before production starts.

Is private label available on cat collars?

Yes, private label is available. That means the finished product carries your brand rather than PrideBites branding, which is what most retailers adding a pet line to an existing assortment are looking for.

What happens after I approve the mockup?

Production begins and runs 6 to 8 weeks, then the order ships by UPS or DHL. Your account contact confirms quantities, sizes, and dates in writing before anything goes to the factory.

Start your cat collar program

If you are expanding an assortment into pet, or planning a campaign that needs something better than generic merchandise, the fastest first step is a mockup. Explore the wider range on the product catalog, see how other brands have approached it on market and resell, and when you are ready, start a project.
