Harness shopping for my cat is probably THE most stressful thing in the universe because if he gets loose it IS the end of the world. He's a master of the "shrink and back up" technique
#lindsay speaks#the thing is. what i really need is a harness that prevents him from getting his head or arms loose... long enough for me to approach &#pick him up at least. i don't use an uber short leash bec he likes having the room to roam but if he's panicked for some reason & trying to#escape the harness me approaching him with my clunky feet freaks him more until i can pet him and then he calms down and in those 5 seconds#he might wiggle enough to escape aaaaaaa#king is my world!!! so i can't let that happen#i live rurally & and I'm surrounded by open fields but they're like. IN USE fields and often have tall crops so once he's in them there's#no spotting him and the little bugger is fast 😭 He used to be an outside kitty before we found out he was allergic to the shingles on our#roof. of all things & i finally convinced my mom to keep him indoors (i was in high school back then so even tho I'm an indoor cat truther#it was not my decision to make) and even tho he's VERY happy as an indoor kitty he still misses the outdoors from time to time#so i walk him!! but he's escaped TWICE and the last time i literally thought he died so. it's very stressful for me. but i do it for him.#and THAT'S why i need an actually escape proof harness please
