What was your inspiration?

My cat wanted to go outside, but we live in a busy and dangerous neighborhood for pets. She needed to be contained in a safe manner. Store bought leashes and harnesses are expensive, gaudy, and don't fit right. I made this special vest just for her and a leash to match.

What are you most proud of?

Designing and putting together this all on my own.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

ALWAYS make a prototype first. Use something cheap ,like muslin to cut and fit until you have it just right. You don't waste expensive fabric if you make a mistake. ;-)

Horsey Girls, what do you mean by "pricey"? I haven't even put a cost on this item, so I am a little confused?

Very nice! What kind of kitty do you have? Mine would never put up with this. I know because we tried to harness him when we moved to FL. Eventually I just gave up and was very careful when he had to leave his travel kennel....

I have twin Calico sisters. Angel is "ok" with it, just for the fact she can go outside. She still tries to roll it off of her but I think she will get used to it in time. Patience is the key ;)
