KATIE Price has come under fire from fans after they spotted a ‘dangerous’ detail in a new snap of the star with her cats.
The former I’m A Celebrity star revealed that she got more pets when she shared a picture of her three designer sphynx cats in October last year.

In a now deleted post on Instagram, the Celebrity Big Brother winner shared a new snap of herself hugging newborn sphynx kittens.
However, viewers flooded the comments section as they noticed that the collars around their necks were far too tight.
One fan wrote: “Those things round their necks look a bit tight!
A second noted: “You’re supposed to be able to get at least two fingers under a collar!”
“Take those collars off,” raged a third user, while a fourth exclaimed: “Those collars are far too tight! And plastic!”
But the comments just kept on coming as social media users begged the former Eurovision hopeful to take action.
Someone else sarcastically remarked: “Alive and thriving, the collars round their neck look too tight.”
And a fifth commented: “Them collars need to come off! Way too hard and thick.”
And an additional user added: “What are those around their necks, [it] looks really uncomfortable.”
Back in May, an animal charity previously hit out at the My Mucky Mansion personality for sharing a Snapchat video of her dogs hanging out of the window.

In a statement, a PETA spokesperson exclusively told The Sun: “While it’s wonderful for dogs to enjoy the great outdoors and lovely when guardians include them on suitable outings, it can be damned dangerous to have the car window lowered enough for them to jump or fall out.
“A sudden stop, sharp turn, or tempting distraction can quickly turn a fun trip into a tragedy.”
In 2024, Katie told how she was forced to put down her last designer cat, Frog, after he fell ill.
Charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) insists there needs to be an injunction stopping the mum-of-five from owning pets after she had seven pets die in just six years.
Founder Ingrid Newkirk previously told The Sun: “If there was a way to file an injunction to stop this serial animal killer, PETA would do so, as this woman doesn’t care about the lives she wastes or listen to vital advice and is still treating live animals like stuffed toys: as disposable.
“If William Hill took totally tasteless bets, the odds would favour those betting on how little time this kitten has on Earth, given the hideous track record of animal deaths in Price’s custody. No one could call it ‘care’.”
The charity even offered Katie £5,000 to stop buying pets and just last month, Katie told her followers there had been another pet death when one of the cats gave birth.
She shared: “An update on the kittens, one unfortunately died.
Given the hideous track record of animal deaths in Price’s custody. No one could call it ‘care’.”

“Luckily I’m trying to help the kittens latch on to the mum, two are just about doing it but I’m having to put them on it, because they are so premature.
“As you can see how knackered I am, every two and a half hours through the day and through the night I’m feeding them for the mum.
“She’s a good mum, and then she keeps bringing one to the bed with her, she did that earlier, I think that was a sign to come and look in the box as one had died.”
At the time of first reporting, The Sun approached a representative of Katie for comment.
