My kitten currently weighs about 5.5 lbs & is growing fast. My question is whether I should purchase the small or medium size?

yes medium. But it sort of depends on breed and gender. my male is 16 pounds and 3, he fits into a large and a medium smothers him. my tabby girl is so tiny, shes about 6-8 pounds? and shes a medium. so...

I would go for the medium for the long term ; my cat weight is about 9lbs. and i use the large. The harness has sliding adjustments and if your cat is still growing a medium for sure. I am happy with mine, get her used to it as soon as possible and enjoy the outdoors.

My kitten is a 7 month old Bengal and noe weighs 8 lbs. I got her a medium. If your kitten is still growing, a medium is probably what you are going to need.

Dusty,I started out with the small size when my kitten was three or four months old. She did grow, and I ended up purchasing the medium only because I wanted to make sure that the harness fit properly.Good luck. I love walking our now ten month old kitten.

I would suggest the medium, it is adjustable. In the reviews I read it runs small. Carol

My cat weighs 10 lbs. and needed a large set at the smallest setting. On the box, it says that the small size will accommodate 9-11 inches in girth, and medium will accommodate 10.5-14 inches in girth. If I were you, I'd measure your cat and go from there. Good luck!

We bought the small size at first and it fit.but was snug ...spooky did weigh a little more though....medium was fine for her. She loves it by way and just to let you know they can wiggle out if they wantt....she only did it once

buy the small if your kitten is small. Don't ever leave your cat unattended with this. She might hang herself. Be sure to get your cat chipped -- actually some vet clinics can get you hooked up with low income chipping if you are low on cash..... My actual cat uses the medium but as her head is small she can sort of try to wriggle out of it. So I end up not really using it at all.....

Medium. I have one of these in every size. Medium fits almost all cats. Small is for cats under 7lbs, and youd need a bengal to use a large.

It depends on the size of your cat. Weigh yourself then pick up your cat and subtract your weight from the total number. You will get your cats weight. then look at the package of the soft paws medium is 9-13 pounds and large is beyond that. My cat is 18 or 19 pounds so i get the large ones. He has been wearing them for 4 years. No problem. I hope that helps.

I think medium because my cat is approx. 6-7lbs and I used a size small for her.

I have a 42lb Dalmatian. I got the extra small for her and it has room to spare. If I remember correctly she was right on the line too. I would put my money on the medium.

I think they must run a little small. I bought a small for my 6-1/2 pound cat and needed to return. Ended up with a medium.

Mine was small as well. My cat weighs about 15 pounds and since the wound was on his neck, this worked out great. I thought the fit would be tight, but it was just right. And he was unable to escape from the collar, but he did lick it and scratch a lot :)

I bought a small for my cat and received an extra small which would have fit a hamster..I gave mine to the vet-they run small so buy as big as you can get

I would recommend Large - as the overall neck girth is 10".the Medium is only 8" and it will be too small for your cat.

In my experience medium means for a grown cat over one year old. I started with small as my pet was a kitten and in the past few month graduated to medium without a problem now that our cat is over one year old. Our cat is on the petite side.

I returned the small and purchased a medium. My cat weighs 8 lbs and i could not get the small to go around his belly.

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.

Not sure but, my for my 10 lb cat, i got the large size and i wouldnt want it any smaller. I think the small one would be too small. My cat prpbably wouldnt fit in the small one..

My cat is about 8.5 pounds with long but fine fur, and the small/medium fits her perfectly. That would probably work best for yours as well! There is also a sizing guide on the manufacturer's website: http://www.kittyholster.com/FAQs.html

Medium. My cat is in the upper end of the size range for the small. I ordered her a small and it barely fastens closed. She has one that is bigger and it's much easier to put on. No sacrifice in snugness, either, thanks to the adjustability of the velcro closures.

Hi..Xs is tiny xtra small I would suggest you get the XL my cat is 12 pounds and it's still have space to adjust around her belly.. That would be the broadest part of the kitty .,good luck..:) if it's too small yet you can always return it .

Medium would probably be fine. My one cat is a Bengal that is about 14 lbs. and my other cat is smaller but 15 lbs--I use medium for both.
