I can tell you for sure growing up, the parents were boomers, I'm a millennial, and there were participation trophies/medals
Or those who wrecked the economy, housing market, and global climate who bring up a meme from 2 years ago that very few people actually did
I agree. Some of the NWS ones are funny but SFW oglaf is beat oglaf.
Edited. Thanks.
Over his head, and stands up so we can clip him in. So he's not difficult, but it would be harder to harness train an older cat (3/3)
He would get comfortable with is. He begs at the closest where we hang the harness, and when we take it out he sits down to have it put (2/)
We started him in the harness at 12 weeks old. We didn't take him out until he was much older, but gave him treats and fed him so that (1/)
He's quite the adventurer

What is the reason? He is in a harness so there is no pressure on his neck/throat, and it is attached to a 25 foot retractable leash.
Thanks for the info!
He likes getting sprayed on the trail. Less so other times and definitely will freak the h*ck out if he thinks he's being put in water.
Also, it's still a cat. They like to explore. This is his third summer on trails and he still has days where he's all over the place.
Awesome! Adventure cats are the best! And what a beautiful girl you've got there.
We started with sidewalks, treats for a good job and locking the leash short when he started going off.
I knew he was too easy to housebreak
I take lots of pictures of Stormy and this one is my favorite in a long time.
Thanks for the comment, glad Stormy could make you smile!
The block is one thing, this was a 5m hike a 50m drive from our house. The last thing I'd want if for him to get spooked and bolt out there.
It's probably doable, will just take more time and patience than a very young kitten.
Thank you!
We just pick him up. IME dog owners usually at least have a leash on them, and will clip em in when they see us.
We wet him down on hot/sunny days. Cats can only sweat out of their paw pads, combined with a black coat, he overheats easily.
We started him wearing the harness at ~12 weeks old, giving him treats and feeding him in it etc. long before we took him out on a trail.
We soak him (pour water in hand and pet or spray with a camelbak) because he's black and overheats. He loves it on hot, sunny days.
He begs/meows looking at his harness and likes car rides (no crate), he definitely loves it,but it's hard to say since we started him young
The biggest "training" was getting him to follow trails and not just wandering. He does best with narrower trails.
We started him in the harness at like 12 weeks, not taking him out but just feeding him in it so that he got comfortable
