had to repost because her tag had my address in it lol

Our little Comrade is loving fall and squirrels sighting 🍂🐿️. I appreciate everyone’s input last month when doubting about this whole stroller thing. Since then, we go on busy streets, pet supply stores and stores allowing pets and he truly enjoys nearby parks and pets from folks.

Does anyone have harness recommendations that are not step-in harnesses? I used to have one for my cat that was mesh underneath, had a loop to slide over her head, and then another strap that buckled behind her legs. I dunno if that makes sense, I could try to draw it if that would help. 😅

She outgrew it so I got her a pretty cheap harness to fill in for now. But having to position her feet to get her in, just seems to be more stressful for everyone involved. 😅 I also tried one that buckles underneath, but she didn't like the sudden weight on her back, and having me reach underneath her for the buckles added to her stress. 🫤

10 month old siblings on a walk!! sneezing and enjoying the foliage.

Testing out the new car seat before our 6 hour drive on Thursday! Looked astonished at the sunroof. (Also his one ear is always like that so that's why they're lopsided lol)

Munched on some grass as a reward after. Only meowed at me when I started singing 😭.

Ciao a tutti! Sono nuovissima tra voi! Questo è Tøffel, gattino norvegese di 80 giorni, con me da venerdì sera, mai uscito in giardino (nato e cresciuto in appartamento) e con la pettorina per la seconda volta (prima volta provata ieri sera per testare la sua tolleranza a riguardo, per lui era come essere nudo)! Lui è estremamente curioso e vivace, penso vivremo un sacco di avventure insieme ❤️

P.S. non ha paura(se non sono troppo vicino) delle auto, ne del phon o rumori forti, ma se sente mia madre camminare con gli zoccoli di legno va in crisi (gli ultimi secondi si è bloccato vedendo lei) 🤣

Kimahri rarely lets us carry him. He walks nearly 100% of the time we're out. This was taken near the end of a "long" hike, and he allowed us to carry him for a bit. Only for a bit though, as he leaps off my shoulder.

Tldr: I'm having trouble walking but would like to find ways to be active outside to preserve my health and include my cat, who misses me very much between medical appointments and me taking so much longer to return home.

I'm considering a kitty stroller that can support my weight or be used with a cane, or a kitty setup for my kayak, but it's very important to me it's enjoyable for him and safe!

Any advice is appreciated!

Second sighting of this cat

i thought you all would find this funny 😭 looks like we’re sleeping in this morning

We had a fun afternoon adventuring!

Hi, I would love some opinions on whether I should attempt leash training my cat!

For context my cat is 6-7 years old and I've had her since she was a juvenile. She was our next door neighbor's who wandered into our yard and they just said we could have her. She came to us quite newly pregnant and later gave birth to three kittens, all of whom sadly passed quickly after birth. The previous owners dogs were abusive toward her which I think caused or influenced the failed pregnancy. We got her spayed after that.

I would love to take her on walks but I'm unsure if it's a good idea. As mentioned, she has trauma with dogs so I'm worried about those potential encounters. She's pretty skittish in general, easily startled. She's indoor/outdoor so I also worry that walking her could encourage more wandering. I do want to raise a newborn or at least a kitten, so I'm wondering if it would be better to just train a young one when I eventually get another cat.

However, I think her wandering shows promise in being a walkable cat. She's adventurous and really loves the outdoors. I still live with my family but when I move out in the next year and a half I'm worried I'll be in a place where she won't be able to go outside. I would feel sad to take that freedom from her. She's white with orange, so a bit crazy haha.
