A 13 year old who isn’t mature enough to write above a 2nd grade level shouldn’t be trying to play grown up.
Leashing a cat is not any different than leashing a dog. They have to be trained.
Now, sit down and stop trying to tell adults, namely me, about animals. I’ve owned more dogs than you’ve seen, you little obnoxious twit.

just wondering…why cant a 13 year old have an opinion on animal rights…they gotta learn sometime I have no problem with leashes if the cat likes it Im just saying my cat would never like this and Im sure she isnt the only 1 ~ And I disagree cats and dogs r compleatly differnt animals thats like comparring a horse and a goat…they r different And if you can only say something about my spelling than u really have no reason to attack me

I actually have a neighbor whose cat LOVES the leash. She’s declawed (which I personally HATE) and she knows the leash means she gets to go outside.
It’s not any “meaner” to leash a cat than a dog.
My cats would kill me in my sleep if I did this, but this picture is GREAT. I love it.

ahaha i just had to comment on this.

i think everyone has made the point that a cat is a cat, we all know what cats are like.

we put dogs on leashes. what’s the difference with a cat? yes they are different animals, but they are domesticated. if you put a cat in a leash from an early age it would get used to it, just as you do with a dog.

and keeping a cat indoors, or just letting onto a balcony is just as much abuse as putting a cat on a leash… which it’s not. all cats are different, and as a pet owner you have to cater for your animal.

if you’re going to use the excuse ‘free spirited’ please apply to all animals. don’t keep hamsters in cages, don’t use leashes for dogs etc.

oh and please learn how to spell.

Settle down people. The cat is fine. Ofcourse a 15 year old cat is going to just laze around on a porch. I have a year old cat and i know that if i let him outside on his own either one of the neighbors dogs or a car would get him. I love my cat and i’m not willing to take that risk. Having a leash for him does not in any way make him less of a free spirit, if he didn’t like it i wouldn’t do it. Dogs at first don’t like to be walked and have to be trained. horses have to be trained to have a saddle. if teaching a cat to use a leash is abuse then all those others are too and gosh that’d be a great deal of animal abuse. PETA would rule the world.

Oh for the love of… Whoever said 13 year olds can’t have opinions on ‘adult’ matters (Actually whoever suggested this, a picture of a cat on a harness, is an adult matter) is a generalising idiot. You’re no more qualified than they are, acting that childish. I’m nearly 15, that 13 year old whose name I forgot is, frankly, an idiot. Doesn’t make all us teenagers moronic, thankye.

Anyhow. Back on topic. Stop bashing it. If the cat really hated it, the cat would dig his or her claws in, and PULL. It’s probably just, as people have said, being tricksy as cats with. They’re naturally very contrary creatures. Sometimes you just have to tell them who’s boss, and if that means tugging them a bit, so be it. As long as the cat isn’ being hurt (Which I can tell it isn’t). Most felines’ll take advantage if you let them have their way TOO much, it’s just how they are. My cat knows she isn’t supposed to come inside my room, but whenever I open it she shoots in - she doesn’t with other rooms. So I lift her up and plop her out. If that’s abuse, this is abuse, and that means I’m an animal abuser which I’m not. Come on seriously guys.
