Cat Leash

Walking Your Cat on a Leash
We DO recommend harnesses that look like an H. This type of harness has a collar part with a buckle, as well as a buckle for the waistband. Cats are much less likely to slip out of an H harness. We DO NOT recommend the figure-8 harnesses, because cats can back out of them.
Be sure to attach an ID tag and write your phone number on the harness so someone knows who to call if your cat happens to get loose.
To train your cat, put on the harness while inside the house. Practice putting it on and taking it off. You should only be able to slip two fingers in between the collar and your cat's neck. Allow your cat to wear the harness around the house for about five minutes.
Repeat this procedure several times a day for a couple of weeks. After the cat feels comfortable in the harness, try adding the leash, but stay inside your house. Walk your cat on the leash inside, every day for a couple of weeks. If possible, do it several times a day.
When the cat feels comfortable on the leash, try opening the door to the outside. Make sure you do it during a quiet time of day, without anyone around. If your cat is scared, don't force it to go outside. Just close the door and try again later. If your cat is ready to go outside, take a short walk. Do not go far from the house. In the beginning, do not stay out long.
If you move to a new home, do not take your cat outside until it has completely adjusted to its new surroundings. Stand still if your cat acts out on the leash. Do not proceed on your walk (inside or outside) until your cat calms down.
When your cat does what you want, reward your cat by praising and petting it. Ignore inappropriate behavior. Do not scold or hit your cat.
Cats don't walk on a leash like a dog. They usually will want to go the direction they choose, rather than following you. If the cat starts to go someplace you don't want it to go, give a gentle tug on the leash and then allow the leash to go slack again. Continue that procedure until the cat changes direction. Never drag your cat.
If you have problems with your cat biting the leash, apply some Bitter Apple or Tabasco sauce to the leash. These things taste bad, but they are not harmful to your cat. Reapply before each walk until the biting behavior stops.
With patience and practice, you and your cat can enjoy an occasional stroll outside together.

About the Author
Has anyone been successful in training their cat to walk on a leash/harness?
I will be getting a kitten soon. The problem is I live in an apartment and I'd hate for the cat to have to be inside 24/7, what kind of life would that be! So I'd like to train it to walk on a leash so that I can take it to the park with me and let it walk with me. I'd like to know any good websites that explain how to train them or any tips that you have.
Thanks for any help!
I leash trained both my cats in a couple of days. As I had my (1 year old) Devon Rex first, I trained him on his own. I bought a harness and leash from Petstock for around 12 dollars au (the smallest, thinnest you can get). When i bought it home, he was very interested in it so we played with it on the floor. It was important that he got used to the smell of it and he recognised that it would be associated with fun.
When he was comfortably resting on the floor i placed the harness over him for a few minutes without the clasps done up. After a few more minutes, I slowly did up the clasps, reassuring him and distracting him with the lead (by the way, this should be detatched when doing this part). You have to be quick to tighten the harness to suit the cat's shape. if it is too lose, the cat will obviously escape or it may get caught on something if it desides to go bananas. Make sure you can slide 2 fingers under either side of the harness comfortably.
Morpheus was fine with it done up until he stood up. He tried to go backwards and kept falling on his side. Try not to be worried if your cat does this. It just feels odd to them and it throws them off balance for a while. I found that if i distracted him with the lead or with food (his favorite of the two), he forgot he was wearing a lead and acted normally.
Depending on your cat, you might have to put the harness on and off for 2-3 minute stints over a number of days so they learn to be comfortable in it. Be sure to reward them - this is a BIG trust excercise. When you think they are comfortable enough (i actually did this the same day i got it), put it on the lead. Don't expect your cat to sit and heel like a dog... they will never walk on a lead like a dog. If it freaks out, just take it off, give lots of cuddles and try again later.
Morpheus loves his lead because he relates it to going out side (which he is not allowed to do alone). He will actually pull out his harness and lead and drag it around the house to get my attention when he wants to go outside. While he did used to wiggle when I tried to put the harness on him he soon learnt that if he wanted to go outside, he had to behave and let me put it on him. If he plays silly-cats, I move away from him for a minute so he is left with his harness undone and the lead going no where. He quickly stops his nonsense and lets me put it on him.
When I got my siamese kitten Neo, he saw me put the harness on Morpheus often but I left him inside while we went outside. He used to cry and scream because he wanted to come outside and play too. When I bought him his harness and lead I simply put on Morpheus's lead and then strapped him in too. I didn't even give him a chance to feel uncomfortable in his harness. I just opened the door and the excitement of going outside with his brother outweighed the strange feeling of the harness.
Good luck with harness training. All cats are different so some will be easier to train than others. Just give them plenty of love and be patient if it doesn't work straight away. Its all about TRUST
IMPORTANT - Cats will walk you. Not the other way around! (unfortunately) Don't drag them around in hopes they will get the picture. it'll just freak them out and will make it difficult next time. Be prepared to dive into bushes and get tangled in trees and to chase birds off the property!
Have fun!!
