None of mine do. The injuries caused by collars (not the safety ones like the one Charun mentioned) are horrific. One cat at Shua was found with a massive injruy under her armpit (pawpit?). She'd struggled to get out of the collar and had her paw stuck. the wound was treated but it had damaged the lymph nodes and she developed cancer as a result and sadly had to be pts a while later. That's just one of the many horror stories I've heard about cats and collars, I'd never risk it with any of mine, they're too active and the danger of them getting it caught somewhere and the poor cat not being able to get free is too high.
