Some cats will accept a harness, and some simply WILL NOT. Picabo would let me put it on her, but then she would simply turn into a lump. She wasn't going anywhere. I tried putting it on Katie exactly once. She went ballistic and I didn't know if I was even going to be able to catch her to get it off, or if I might lose a finger in the process. Shadow liked it so much she would actually go and get it and carry it to me in her mouth!

I can relate to these stories. The lay down and become a lump is very familiar! Our one cat who traveled well, didn't mind the harness at all. The harness was really for ME because I was afraid she'd bolt out the car door unexpectedly.
