Cat Stroller - fun or crazy cat lady?

[Kirsten]

I wouldn't care if people would call me a crazy cat lady or whatever. If the cats like it, why not. If they don't like it, they will tell you! I think Luna may have enjoyed this when she was younger.

Ah COME ON!!!! I do it all the time with Isis and Utchie. And you make Crazy Cat Lady sound like it's a bad thing!!!

This is satrting me to wonder if My Found Hotel Cats would like to be walked or not
And which Cat would like that the most!!!That certainly would be a great oppurtunity to get Roast Beef at Metros!!!

Pepper, Willow and Willy loved it. But, when we put all 3 in there, Pepper and Willow would pick on poor Willy.
Now, we usually take Pepper by herself because she's made a friend in the Spaniel down the street. We roll by his fence and he comes running over wagging his whole body and he and Pepper have a conversation.

Cammie doesn't go because she never wants to be more than 3 inches from a heat source.

Kuhio,

My cats won't stray far from their food source!!

Utchie and Isis love going to the park in the back of my apt. bldg. When Utchie is with her, she enjoys the fresh air.

I say GO FOR IT!! If they get stressed out, don't put 'em through it.

PISSHAW to the neighbors! CRAZY CAT LADIES (AND GENTLEMEN) UNITE!!!!

Word of advice...DO NOT do the transfer from arms to stroller outside!! Guaranteed to lose a cat. Wheel them out with the screen up. (but you KNOW that)

Definitely! We make sure they are zipped up before going outside.
My poor brother still grieves for a kitty he lost. The kitty hated the carrier, so my brother always carried him from the car to the vet and back in his arms. He was just putting the cat back in the car when a passing truck backfired. Kitty went crazy and scratched him bloody. He could not hold on and the kitty ran away into the woods. My brother stayed in the vet's parking lot for hours trying to get the cat back. He and my mother went back every day for the next 3 days, but never found the kitty.

Very sad lesson learned.

Oh, in case anyone is wondering about us taking the kitties out in the snow, the cheetah looking fabric thing in the stroller with Pepper is a Snuggle Safe. You heat it in the microwave and it stays warm for hours. It keeps them warm on our winter walks. I also heat one up at night for Cammie. It seems to help her arthritis quite a bit.

Lisa, any chance you have a picture of that Snuggle Safe? It sounds like what I was looking for for Pjevs who lived in our yard - he's long gone, though - but in case other kitties move in to the yard and the winter is freezing cold, it would be nice to know where to get one. Fister might even like it, too.
