Cat harness


So from my other thread about walking my cats, I got to thinking about what the best harnesses are.

Anyone have any recommendations? Atm they just have a basic one from cats at home.

Anyone got one of these? http://www.mynwoodcatjackets.co.uk/designer.php

Re: Cat harness


Those look serious! I like the tartan ones, but I don't think either of mine would let me get near them with one.

I didn't try a harness or lead with Kizzy but Pip did wear one (with limited success) and it was just an ordinary thin one that a kind member here sent me. I have now passed it on to another member.

Re: Cat harness


Toffee suffered the added indignities of a puppy harness.



It worked quite well for us and it is adjustable in all directions from four-five month old kitten to grown cat.

Nice harnesses Feliss! I love the red paisley one and the spotty one.

I had limited success with harnesses on my persians as they all did a 'sit down and refuse to move' protest at each turn so I gave up. But I had a basic strap-type harness much like the one hreow has pictured; perhaps if they had had a little more actual cradling of the body with the harness they may have preferred it.

Re: Cat harness


Loving that pic of toffee! It's good that it's adjustable in all ways, the one I have isn't along the back bit.

My Myszka can get out of the strappy one, so that's why also thinking of getting a different type one, with more support/wrappability.

Let you know how we get on
