I have never tried that since. Good luck with training Your Companion Cats!!!
Oh-oh...Luna's a Meezer...and last time I put her in the harnass/leash combo (strapped in nice and secure, by the way), the little Houdini did this wierd little flip/roll move and managed to free both her legs. Like I said, I don't trust that cat. From now on she's under strict supervision.

Thanks for the good luck. I'm not really trying to train them to walk. I just want them to be able to go outdoors safely without risking the chance they'll run into the street or run away and get in trouble. And naturally, one or both of us us always outside with them.
