Do you walk your cat on a leash?

I don't but I've often thought about it as where we live it's too dangerous to let them out alone and so they've always been strictly indoor cats. How did you manage to introduce and get him used to the leash? Was it hard?

It would be really hard to leash an older cat..........but as you say that its got used to it and does not complain,i think you can continue...............but make sure to have him comfortable....do you have a big house that the cat can roam freely?....Have you got your cat fixed? if you donot leave the cat alone,i thinks its better to fix it.Or else it might become too much troublesome.........and dont worry about what others say............keeping your happy is what counts........keeping other people happy does not count :D lol Cheers!

Tigger loves his harness/leash and also knows the only way he's allowed outside is on his leash. He proudly displays his harness in the pic I've included.

My oldest Meeca has a harness and a leash. Thats the only way I will let her go outside. Even though we live in the country theres too much she can get into or even get hurt so when its warm enough outside she is allowed out on her leash and harness and she doesnt seem to mind it too much.

Well, I don't have a cat now, but I have had one that we put on a leash. In fact, my daughter was about 9 when we got him and I let her walk down the block with our kitten on the leash. It was in the summer and lots of people were outside. One lady yelled all sorts of things at her! She said it was cruel to put a leash on a cat and she had never seen that before in her life! lol I explained to my daughter that some people are just stupid and can't stand seeing anything "different." First of all, it's cruel to let them run loose when you're living in the city (which we were at the time). Second, I think you pretty much have to start young with them to get a collar or leash on them. Later, they don't take to kindly to it! I guess some of us just appreciate having their cats more than others. I think it's lovely that you take your cat on vacation!

my cat would absolutely refuse to be walked on a leash...it would be a dramatic scene of me dragging him more like. so no, i don't even bother with that whole ordeal. however, i was terrified of losing my cat or him being injured/killed on the roads in town where i live. My cat aarik was nicknamed "the great white hunter" because he was a phenomenal "rabbit killer"....lol....(as gross as it was) So i couldn't take his outside time away from him....i bought him a 5 point collar/harness and a long leash and put it in my yard. so whenever he wanted outside to go on a little hunting spree, thats what he wore. at first he hated it....but he grew to stand it after some time. he even got so comfy with it on that he was able to still hunt and successfully at that; catching rabbits in the small area that he was able to move around in. lol....but yes, everyone thought i was totally crazy when they saw my cat tied up on his leash in the front yard. lol not something you see very often.

I have never seen a cat on a lwash, I couldn't imagine many cats liking it very muchbut it would be great being able to take your cat away with you and a leash would make that so much easier.. I did see a boy taking his ferret for a walk on a leash once..
