@chichirinuriko20 Thanks! He's two years old and I started training when he was a little over a year old. Then I had to wait until he'd been properly vaccinated (for FIV, FeLV, etc), given a flea and tick preventative, and microchipped before I took him outside. Now we go out a couple times a week and stroll up and down our block. He seems to really like it. When he's ready to go inside, he just leads me to our front door and waits for me to let him in. :)
@chichirinuriko20 The first few times I put the harness on Logan, he was so silly. He would flop over on the floor and act like he couldn't walk. Of course, as soon as I got some treats out, he could walk again! Haha. It's a pretty common reaction for cats. They don't like the harness at first, so letting them wear it around the house for a while first gets them used to it.
He's cute!! How old is he and when did you started to train him. I totally agree with you on only take cats outside on a leash.

@cavykatie: Oh cool. :) How did he feel when you first put it on him?
