Maybe, Maybe Not

I have - and he actually does not mind the leash so much - but as Boscibo mentioned, I am afraid to take him out as I think this will just make him more "hungry" for the outside..
There's no harm in giving it a try. You've got to set the boundaries here - don't let kitty get the better of you. By taking kitty outside on the leash, you are telling kitty "Yes, you may go outside, but it's on my terms only!" Make sure you reward good behaviour on the leash with a treat. When kitty goes for the dash, use whatever deterrent already works best on your cat (loud voices, pointing, spray bottles, etc.)
Good luck!
