I bought the large for my 10 lb "kitten" when he was 6 months. It fit him in the tightest adjustment and is growing with him. It is easy to put on once adjusted and he loves being outside with me in the yard.

I would probably go for a large. The medium just fits our large cat but I'm thinking of upsizing her to a large as it's very tight.

Go with the large. It's 19" long, 9-1/2" wide and 13" high if that will be large enough. I gotmine because my cat breed is large & will be close to 20# when full grown. Will be cozy, none too big.

Make sure you get the right one. Do the one that is 10-20lbs. My cat is only around 7lbs and that's the one we got her for to walk around in. it's huge for her. though it's perfect enough for her to stand up in and walk around

I have the large ones-- it was a little tight for 13-14 lb cat but he could turn around in large one. I have a 7 lb cat and the large one was great size for him. He had plenty of room.

My cat is appx. 10 pounds, I got the large so he'd be comfortable but it works good for his size. I think the regular may have been too small.

I have a medium, which fits my slim 10 lb cat nicely, and my slightly chubby 15 lb cat poorly, but adequately. She's got a large frame, where if yours is chubby at 10 lb, I'm guessing she's got a tiny frame. The large is probably your better bet, but I think the medium might work.

I use Med. for my two cats. They are average size. If you have a big tom cat with big paws I'd go for the large.

My cat weighs 13 lbs and I got him the medium/large. It fits him fine but there is room to spare. I would get the next size down for your cat. The harness has adjustable Velcro so you should be fine.

I have both the small and medium. The medium I have at the end of its extensions for my bigger cat which weighs around 13-14 pounds. If there is any chance of growth you may want to go bigger and just tighten it down.

I got the XL , I use it for my MaineCoon.I have cat box , small scratching post, food and water....its a big crate! Great Dane....I'd go lg or XL.

From my experience, I would recommend a size medium. That's about the same size as my cat and a small did not fit so I ordered medium and it worked much better. The small didn't even go on.

I purchased the intermediate size which more than accommodates my 19-lb feline. Plenty of room to spare once she settles in. While cats and dogs take up space differently, my feeling is that the LARGE carrier would be a comfortable accomodation for your buddy, likely with room to spare for a pad.

At that weight a medium would do, but with the girth you mentioned a large is the best choice. My 9ish pound Maine Coon I just measured him he was 14 inches girth too (hair LOL) - and the medium was a little tight on him, I actually put it on him. I would go with the large. But I use the harness on many cats at our shelter and the medium will fit some cats up to 13 pounds, so girth is a big factor.

my 3 cats are just under 10 pounds each. In the large, thy have room to move and turn around. The small would probably work, but for long periods it may be a bit restrictive.

Our 12-pound cat fit just fine, with plenty of room to spare. I would think a larger cat, 15 pounds or so, would be comfortable.

It would be too small. My cat is 11lb and it's too small for him now! Go with the next size up!
