The Importance of a Cat Harness

Cats are feral animals that have not entirely lost touch with the wild side of their ancestors and cousins. This means that they are practically still designed for the wild and rough. This means that having a cat within the confine of a cat house might probably be against his nature.

Taking him outside to explore the world enables that “raw cat” to come out and meet his instincts. However, we cannot always trust that our cats will just go outside and walk with us side by side. They are pretty sneaky and we would definitively not dare to take our cats out unleashed. It would simply not be a walk, it´d be you chasing your cat all around the neighborhood.

Now, putting on a cat harness on your fella is important because you need to distribute the pressure of a leash more evenly. Cats, unlike dogs, are more sensitive to traumas to the neck and a collar attached to a leash can cause some damage to their throats.
