Today is National Answer Your Cat’s Questions Day and I have just one burning question for mom. Why do you insist on continuing to torture me with the harness?
Mom replies: Oh, Christy, you are doing so much better with the harness, how can it still be torture? To answer your question, I really, really want you to be able to go for walks outside. I think once you are used to it, you will enjoy it 
so much you will be sorry you fought it so hard. You love it when the doors and windows are open and think how much better you could smell all those smells if you were actually outside. Just imagine the one big sun puddle! And don’t think I don’t see you hunker down like you want to run out when I open the door.
Also, I guess I’m a little selfish. I think it would be so much fun to have you by my side on walks and trips in the car. You could even go to the pet store and pick out your own toys! Remember, we talked about that boring thing? Don’t you get bored laying around all day and night sleeping? This would add a little, maybe even a lot, of excitement to your life. It may not seem like it to you, but I am doing this because I love you.
Christy’s response: Oh, mom, I know you love me. I am doing better and feeling more comfortable in my harness. I really appreciate that you are taking things so slowly, even if it is because you forget sometimes!
Hope all my feline friends got their questions answered today.

A harness isn’t so bad, Christy! You’ll get used to it eventually and then you can go on cool adventures with your mom!

I think your questions stumped us all! Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend.
I would *love* to harness train Truffles. Your animal print harness is adorable!!!
Christy I’ve been going for walks with my Mom on a harness/leash since I was teeny tiny….of course when that’s how you were raised, it’s easier to get used to – it’s the only way I ever went outside! But I think if you just continue to wear it and get used to it you will LOVE LOVE LOVE the freedom you feel when you can walk around out there! Trust me!
Hugs, Sammy
Thanks, Sammy. You haven’t steered me wrong yet! I’ll keep you posted.
you’re going to love it when you get to go on adventures,I love going out on my harness and I’m a bunny.its just so much fun,I went out yesterday ,I had to wear a jumper to as it was cold and it was only for an hour but it was great,xx Speedy
I’ve seen your videos, Speedy. It does look like you are having a lot of fun out there.
Christy, your human is right – it IS fun to go out and watch Bird TV and be right there on the set! I’ve been on short walks in the neighborhood, and it’s very interesting! I did not mind my harness too much from the start to be honest. Of course, the fact that I got treats when I wore it for a good long while helped. 😉
Thanks, Summer. I’ll remind mom about the treats! It would probably have been a lot easier for me if mom had started when I was a youngster like you.
What a nice mom you have Christy. I know you want to go for a walk with her and be by her side so she can talk to you. You’ll get used to it my friend.
(((Shoko)))
Thanks for the encouraging words!
At least you could ask a question! Our lame Mama forgot all about it! And we don’t think it is selfish of your Mama to want you to tag along to different events. We think you are going to have one heck of a time gallivanting around Christy , once you get used to that harness 🙂
the critters in the cottage xo
Thanks for the encouragement. I’m really trying.
Christy, you look so good in your harness! And just think…a harness usually means you get to go somewhere…and that sounds like fun!
It does sound like fun but also a little scary!
Yous looks most excellent in your harness! Mes loves it. Mes is leash trained. And mes travels and mes wears a collar, mes wishes mes had a beautiful harness likes yous!!

Your mom’s answer sure was a good one. Hope you enjoy the great outdoors when you finally get there. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
I think your Mom’s intentions are wonderful! Unlike my Mom who used to take Angel Bobo outside and she used dog collar and a dog leash (super high quality, sturdy ones because Mom was too afraid of losing Bobo!) Love, Cody
You do look adorable in your harness- at least you have a stylish one 🙂
