Once he understood it was for his safety, I had not trouble. Bless his heart, he died last year... beloved Panther! |

Quoting: popcornI have seen little dogs pushed around in enclosed stroller things. I could not help but to point and laugh. I don't think that kind of walk does much good for an animal.

I saw a pack of coyotes in AZ and four of them all had rabbits and one had an orange tabby in their mouths... all still alive.. and they were going to their feast..... after that I trained my cat. First several times, we just sat in the yard. It takes time and love. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1133661 United States 01/05/2011 08:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have walked my cats on a leash. One time something startled the cat and he took off like a rocket. He took all the slack out of the leash and was doin a wheelie down the sidewalk, and ricocheted off a tree. Finally I was able to get close enough to him to pick him up, and carried him home the rest of the way. I wish I had a video of that!! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1218833 United States 01/05/2011 08:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That is sooo wrong. Quoting: PsychI agree but sometimes there's no other option if you want to get them outside. Was catsitting my daughter's cat in Seattle and if he had bolted we would have never seen him again. Once he realized the leash allowed him to go outside he was okay with it. But then, he's a pretty mellow cat. Wouldn't exactly call it 'walking' tho. And he could turn around and back out of the harness, so I had to pay attention. He tried to a couple of times when something spooked him. In general though the harness worked pretty well and was easy to adjust. Can't even imagine putting my cat in a harness, he would probably land on top of my head or something. |

Turned out they didn't need it. They would walk with me fine. I felt they were safer in case dogs came along. We went down by the river sometimes. In truth they hated the car. I should have taken them in the car when they were younger. Walked with me for years without leashes. We loved it. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30224107 United States 12/18/2012 07:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I had a cat that I used to walk (without a leash) at the same time as my dog. He would follow me and the dog down the walking trail stopping every now and then to look around, and then sprinting to catch up to us. I used to let him out on his own until a coyote starting hunting him down.... |

I have two who regularly follow me down to the stream at the back of our place for a walk. They don't need leashes and never go too far from me. They also know their limits and don't stray too far into the nearby territories of other cats. |
