I'm buying a "Kitty Holster" vest/harness to use with this, so I'd just like to know about the leash. Did you like the leash for your cat?

yes, it fits very good on her I don't walk her out side but I have it on when we go to the vet along with a carrier.

We did use the leash. Our cat is an escape artist, though, so the harness didn't stay on long. The leash was fine while we were able to use it. Good length, secure clasp.

Yes. I like the bungee aspect of the leash. It allows the cat to explore around. I would not recommend this leash for the vet's office though..too much recoil ;)

HaHaHa! So funny. When I leash up Mowgli, he lays down. Period. End of story. I suppose I could drag him around, remembering to turn him over so he doesn't lose all the fur on one side. I'm still working on it...the solution will probably involve food, probably tuna. The harness product is ok fine...cat psychology is the problem. Good luck.

I dont think so, I have my dog wear his collar and his leash is attached to that and not to the vest.

OH YES !!! The Velcro is Wide & very Strong. This Harness has been #1 with the "Animal Magazines" I have not heard a bad thing about them. Also check Jackson Galaxy " my cat from hell" program on animal planet.

We are happy with the leash. It has some "give" to it so it can expand by about 1/3 its length. This allows the cat some degree of freedom w/o going too far. Our guy is quite old, so he is content to walk along with us w/o much pull. A younger cat might want to run about, in which case I think the flex would be an advantage, as she could stray a bit before coming to the end.

You might want to. I didn't like this harness my cat was not able to move his front legs while it was on him

The velcro is very wide and secure. My cat weighs about 10 pounds and there's no way he can wiggle out of it. That being said, I still haven't taken him for a walk outside because he becomes very docile when he has it on and he just lies down.

My 10 pound dog can wiggle her way out of it. I think your cat is probably more agile than my chihuahua :) Your cat may be able to squeeze out of it. Maybe a small would fit more snugly than the medium. Other than that its a really good quality harness and if properly fit its safe and seems comfortable for the pet.

I don't use a harness just attach the safety strap, that his attached to the seat belt, to the spot where the leash attaches to the metal part. She can still move around but neither of mine do a lot of that. I love my pet car seats.

I have purchased holsters for two cats - one S/M & one M/ L. They both were a good fit for my cats.

I just used a pair of pliers to pull the Cat Head out of the plastic belt carrier. After that, it went in and out easily. Just the first time pulling it out was a real bitch.

I would not recommend using this for a cat. You would be better off purchasing a $35.00 pet stroller from Amazon. It would be much more secure and I am certain the cat would prefer the stroller to the dog carrier backpack. I have purchased one of the $35.00 strollers and it works great.

This harness didnt work well for my cat. He had a hard time moving his front legs in it. Sorry!

I'm not sure, but I doubt it. My cat weighs 12.5 pounds dripping wet and it isn't loose. I'd look for a holster that fits a larger cat.

It feels solid when locked. Our 62 lb Husky/Lab mix hasn't lunged on it yet (cats pick on her and require lunges) but the retracting spring holds the line taunt and she is very sensitive to that, returns to my side when I don't mean for her to. Our previous leash kept the line off the ground but did not pull. I really hope this one relaxes a little because that's the whole purpose of a retractable - give them scratch & sniff room without requiring your presence in the shrubs! If she was a "tugger", this would be ideal.

Hello. I've been using this on my ~11 pound cat since late September. It took a little getting used to for him, but it's very second nature for him now. I wouldn't say it is 'small,' but my vet verified that it's not too big for a cat his size. You just have to purchase a small dog collar for it so that it is sturdy enough to hold the device upright. Please see the review I posted for this product.

Yes. It is also designed fit vertically or horizontally on a tactical vest (I have mine set up, horizontally). The CAT is completely contained within the pouch and not visible, however the pouch as a very visible "TQ" on the flap which is easily and quickly accessible.

It appears this question has been answered. I tried to put a regular harness on my cat but he wriggled out of it. I think this one might work out. These run small. The harness might go on him but I can't see a cat walking on a leash. Let me know how it works out. Good luck!
