The Company of Animals Vivid Flashing Collar

Is it walk time or party time? The Company of Animals Vivid flashing collar ($24.99) features four settings: light-sensitive mode (meaning the lights automatically come on when it gets dark out), slow flashing, fast flashing and permanently on. Even without the bright LED lights (which stay charged for up to 15 hours of contiuous use), the padded collar is highly visible due to strips of reflective material.
