Soft harness for cats
Hi, has anyone ever tried using a soft harness for taking their MC outside, maybe not for a walk just for some time to play in the grass? I bought ginger a soft harness and am going to take her out on the patio when we are all sitting out there. She is a little skittish and wants to go back inside, but she does look adorable on a leash! Here is a picture of me and Ginger.

Yes... Adorable! We had soft harnesses for the boys when they were smaller. So funny to watch the contortions they put themselves in when the harnesses went on for the first time. Now that they are 11 months, 16 lbs and a little more patient we've moved onto a different type. It is more difficult to unlatch but they did not like the undoing of the Velcro on the soft harnesses. I caught some fur in it a couple of times - probably didn't help!

Aw she looks so cute Donna. I think that is a brilliant idea, going to try that with Dylan when he gets older, thank you for that I would never have thought of it !

got one for Neevie, too, but she hated it - just sat there, didn't want to move - I gave up.

Alekto,
Aww poor Neevie, she would probably get used to it and love it! Ginger would walk around on the grass a bit, but since that was the first time her feet every touched grass I think she was a little nervous. I will be bringing her out on the patio more so she gets used to the outside. I love the wildlife and I don't want her to become a hunter! We have 2 Beagles and they scare enough bunnies and squirrels without any help from Miss ginger. Ginger has enough fun killing my houseplants! The silly little Monster!

Cute!
I got a very simple, but very sturdy one on amazon from a company named Trixie. I envisioned lovely strolls around the neighborhood with Ollie, but it hasn't quite worked out that way. He has an amazing doggie radar, and once he spots one, even if they're silent and a mile away, he starts freaking out. So we go out in the garden together, and if he starts to stray beyond the borders the harness make it easy to reel him back in.
