not hard to do. Patience, practice, time, and you will be
walking with your cat soon.
The best time to start to train a cat to walk with a leash is
when it is a kitten. When a kitten is small, needs to be taught

do not really know what is right and wrong.

its ways. With patience from both you and your cat, you will be
able to train the cat to

leashes with the average of five
to 6 feet, would be a good length. Weight of the leash should be
light. You would not want a heavy one like for a dog. This will
put to much weight on the cat and be uncomfortable.
Another item that you will need to consider is a harness or

purchasing a collar you will want to make it very narrow one and
light. When looking for one keep in mind that around the cats
neck you need to give a lot of room for it but not to lose.

play with the cat with the item. This allows the cat to get use
to it and put its scent on these items. Once your cat has been
able to do this, the next thing you will want to do it, start
with the harness. Put the harness on the cat as loose as you can
get it, just place it on the cat, depending on the reaction of
the cat you can leave it on for a short time or if the cat does
not want anything to do with it, then you might have to go back

then it is time to go for the walk.

leash to run in directions they feel is necessary. The neighbors
pets will be out and your cat might want to see them. Have your
cat walk with you and not the cat walking you.

need the exercise also.
