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.....

I'd recommend medium. Think small are for kittens, but not 100% about that.

It's on the box but if you have cats and not kitten medium is the best size unless you have like jaguar cats. The mediums work great for us, and we even forced the smalls on them the first time I got them by accident. But medium is your safest bet.

My cat is ~9lbs and the small was too big but the x-small was perfect although with some effort, she could scratch around it. The opening for the x-small is ~10in and for the small~12 in. Hope that helps.

My cat is 8 pounds and the small fits her perfectly. I assume your puppy will grow, so if it's a tad big, he will grow into it.

My 20 pound cat wears a large. I think the medium would be fine for a 12 pound cat. It is made of t-shirt fabric and is very stretchy.

I think the smallest one available would be okay for a cat. I have a Corgi and he weighs about 33/34 lbs and has more than enough room with the 36". I probably would have gotten away with the 24" actually.

I'd get the larger one. You can use the edges, or half of the 'brush'. Kittens grow so fast, don't bother with the smaller one.

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..

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

My cat weighed 8.25lbs and was to large for the medium so at 15lbs I'd suggest a large or extra large. You want the shirt to be snug but not so tight that the cat can't breathe!

Get a large. My cat is 17 pounds and the large had to reach a bit on her. But the range that you can adjust is considerable, so even if you have to make it tighter, the large will probably word. Also, 12 pounds is pretty big for most kitties in my experience.

For any cat and for small dogs I would use the extra small size. My cat is 13 pounds and the small was way too big ... The extra small was just right for him ... For larger dogs, I don't know what to say!

I have an average sized 10 lb cat, and I got her a size small. She fits just fine for a quick drive, but the small size might be a little too small for any long drives.

Our cat only weights 8 pounds and we got medium claws for her and they were fine. I like for a 13 pound cat, medium would work just fine.

In my experience, if you have a kitten order a small, if you have a cat over one year old you'd be safe ordering mediums, they would fit either way and then after application you can get an idea of whether you want to order a large next time. My one and a half year old cat wears medium. That is after I trim the nails before application. Be sure not to cut the pink portion of the nail. I do it just enough to dull the tip of the claw then I apply the soft claws. Hope this helps.

I would purchase the medium, have two Maine Coon cats about the same size, but 20 lbs. It is a perfect fit. Hope this helps.
