8/23/2008 - Leash-training update
Posted in Unspecified

Well, leash-training with Murray had seemed to be going well, but the cheap leash contraption I had bought for him broke, so I had to take it back. I bought him a better-quality cat harness, but it didn´t fit him because he is a big boy. So then I exchanged it for a small dog harness, but the straps were too wide and rigid, and it wasn´t designed for a cat´s physiology, so it was like a strait jacket on him, limiting his mobility - which, of course, totally defeats the purpose. So, I´m going to take that back..

I raised the question, on a couple of cat discussion sites I belong to, of where to find extra-large cat harnesses. Several people recommended something called a "walking jacket" that is more secure and comfortable than a standard harness, and it comes in extra-large sizes. So I ordered one in the biggest size for Murray. It wasn´t cheap, so hopefully I can return it if he doesn´t warm up to it!
