    Wessie is a natural as a "cat model." Such a handsome boy!😻🐾💯
  • @burningsoap
    Your cat is a rock of serenity for sitting so still.
  • @trunkb73625
    I am so sad that I have never had a client ask me to walk their cat. I've been a pet sitter for over 5 years and I figured it would have happened by now lol Wessie looks adorable as usual. Thanks for another great video Mallory!
  • 1. My main concern is what happens when a dog suddenly appears and chases your cat. Any harness will work with a calm cat, but I have never found a harness that will work if the cat really wants to get out of it. 2. I worry about any harness that depends on a loop around the throat. It seems to me that it is far safer, for the cat, to depend on a strap that puts pressure across the breastbone instead of the throat. 3. If a cat wants to escape, they will back out of the harness. I've never seen a design that will prevent this.
  • I used to walk my cats back in the day. The leash was not secure at all. It’s good to see new products as I’m getting new kittens soon :)
  • Omg I was just thinking of buying a harness for my new kitty. This video could not have been better timed 😂
  • @nicoleleung3518
    What I really need to know is how to train my two cats to walk in the SAME direction at the SAME time
  • @johng.4959
    Great review! I've been looking for a harness and this was perfect timing. Thanks for the outdoor shots and opinions! :)
  • @desturner1299
    I love how straightforward you are! Thanks for such useful cat content 🐱
  • @kestrelgilliam
    So excited for this video! Thank you for posting! Definitely wanting to get out there this summer with my kitty :)
  • @Chknbskt
    amazing, thorough video as always. Thank you so much
  • @bentstrider
    The first two options seem to be the best. I drive semis and occasionally take my cat with me. No child-proof locks on these trucks and my cat jumping the harness and rolling down a window is an all-too-real nightmare. Current harness is some random, tacticool harness that's meant for a chihuahua. He slips out of this easily.
  • You’re so easy to watch. Such a welcoming voice. I’ve been searching for a harness, was so glad to come across this video.
  • @trev1037
    Thank you! Can't wait to see what'll be tested next.
  • Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video! I'm making a move by car from Dallas Texas to Spokane Washington with my 5 cats soon and i've been hoping to find information on the best harness for my lot. Their ages range from 15 months, 2yrs, 4yrs and 18 yrs. i want them to be safe and comfortable on our journey. A video on road trips with cats someday would be great too!
  • @mistiramey2544
    Our cat is a Houdini and was able to get out of every harness I found. The one I found that takes a little longer to get because it's made with your cats measurements is Hyendry. I got the one with both Velcro and clips. But I would like to get another one to use when one is in the wash
  • @paul2019monte
    Thanks for this! I tried a harness for my kitty a few years ago but the options were limited then. Time to try again! I know she'd love the ability to be outside safely. 😻💕
