An Elizabethan collar is a pet protection accessory commonly used to prevent pets from scratching their wounds or licking medicine after surgery. Made of soft plastic, the collar is designed to avoid harming the pet’s body. During the healing period after surgery, if the wound becomes itchy, the Elizabethan collar prevents the pet from biting itself. Additionally, it should be used after applying insect repellent to prevent pets from licking the medication. The collar gets its name from its resemblance to the high, circular collars worn during the Elizabethan era
