Houdini™ Escape Proof Cat Harness and Leash Set by OutdoorBengal – Black, Large Cat Harness for Walking Big Cats

I’ve purchased a few different harnesses over the past two years, and let me tell you, I’m absolutely impressed. This is the first time my cat has allowed me to keep the harness on her without forcing her to wear it. She usually wears a regular harness for 5-10 minutes before trying to escape. When I put this harness on her, I told her “yes! Good job!” and offered her a treat (I wanted to reward her so she’d associate the harness with a positive experience rather than a negative one). When I took it off, she wouldn’t stop meowing until I put it back on her! I was genuinely shocked. She’s happily walking around the house with it on. It was easy to put on, and it’s incredibly lightweight. I was concerned a medium wouldn’t fit her (she weighs 11-12 pounds), but after adjusting the straps to fit her, I still had some extra strap room to make it smaller or larger. The buckle quality is excellent, and the overall fitting is fantastic. It’s not too tight or too loose. I want to thank the creator of this harness. My cat is quite adventurous, but I don’t let her wander alone outside, so this is going to be a significant game-changer. Please make a light pink or a light purple!! Thank you so much!

This cat harness really really works. It does not choke the cat but does make it easy for me to walk my cat around the house and "control" him. We are currently trying to introduce the new cat using the harness to the other three cats in our house. So I have used it several times. With the harnessed cat, if there is 'untoward' behavior, I can easily 'steer' the cat along. Our cat using this harness is 11 1/2 pounds and very very long and lean. It fits him well. It is also easy to get it on and off of him too. So we had 2 other harnesses and they did not work on him. One was too big and another he could easily slip out of. Our new pet is a wiggley cat genius and yet he cannot get out of this harness. I highly recommend this harness if you have a cat that likes to wiggle out of harnesses. It fits our cat well on neck and under front paws and stomach. Not too tight, not too loose. Easy to use.

I bought the turquoise one in size Medium for my 3 year old fur baby, Sushi, who measures about 13.5” under her arms. She’s on the smaller side as far as adult cats go, so it fits her a tad loosely. The sizing guide also said it likely would, so I think it’s supposed to.I had been eyeing one of these harnesses for a while now, but I wanted to wait until she finished growing before taking the leap. I bought this for her as a “graduation from harness training” gift, and it looks absolutely GORGEOUS on her! The color is very true to the advertisement, and the jump ring tightening mechanism is genius. It also seems to be pretty comfortable, being as it doesn’t appear to restrict her movement whatsoever. She’s even laying in my lap, napping while wearing it as I’m writing this.She hasn’t attempted an escape yet, but if she does, I’ll update my review! So far though, 10/10 would recommend.

The harness itself is lightweight and easy to put on the cat. Easy to adjust to fit too. The leg strap buckles are cheap plastic and feel like they won't last long, which I wouldn't have expected from an item this expensive.Like most harnesses, this one is designed to be "escape-proof" if the cat pulls against the leash. The harness is not designed for pushes and thus can't counter my cat's signature move, where the front legs stretch forward to narrow the shoulder span, then the back feet get under the straps, kick forward, and push the harness toward the head and neck (off the shoulders) so that front legs can slip out. The first few times wearing it around the house in an attempt to get used to it, my cat escaped in about ten seconds--which is eight seconds longer than most harnesses, so a bonus point for challenging my cat's determination. I'm hoping my cat gets used to this lighter one over time.

Fits perfect and still has room to grow. It’s not heavy. My kitten didn’t even mind it after 39 seconds. We have practiced wearing for about 20 min a day and he doesn’t mind any more. My kitten is comfortable in it and doesn’t seem to want to get out of it which is a plus. I would definitely recommend.

At first I thought this harness was really great. Other than the fact that it came with twisted straps, they are thin and there is no way to fix this because of the stopper. This always bothered me about it, especially at this price point. Where is the quality control? Most harnesses are $15, so for this price I’d expect better.However, It tightens the neck if they try to back out so they would stop. If you have a cat that jumps around a lot (which hello, that’s a cat) I would caution you NOT to purchase this. My cat almost strangled on this. Fortunately I was right there and was able to help her but it scared the crap out of her and me. She was hanging off a wall by the neck. Poor baby. I put my cats on leads and sit outside and watch them. If you are right there with the leash you probably won’t have to worry about this but in this type of situation I cannot recommend this product. She won’t even come back outside right now. 🥹🥲 I feel terrible she went through this and I regret buying this very much. In fact, I bet it’s killed cats. Use caution.
