pidan Cat Harness and Leash Set, Cats Escape Proof – Adjustable Kitten Harness for Large Small Cats, Lightweight Soft Walking Travel Petsafe Harness（(Multicolor-M Size）

This Pidan harness is my blind cat’s favorite
This Pidan brand cat harness was a stunning gamechanger for Marcus. Marcus was born blind, with both eyeballs undersized and the largest of the two eyeballs is subject to soreness and requires ophthalmic ointment often. We had to find a harness that eliminated sliding a harness on over his head and raking his poor eyeball. Well, this Pidan harness was the answer to our plight!
Marcus closely resembles the shorthair orange tabby pictured in Pidan’s Amazon ad : a long, slim cat. Marcus is almost 8 lbs at 8 months old.
It fits him well . While no cat harness should ever be deemed escape proof in my opinion, this harness tempts me to proclaim it is escape proof if it’s adjusted properly on Marcus ,while he’s at his current size in growth.
I can readily see that large cats might not wear this harness well because the piece that the leash attaches to that runs from collar over to the girth circingle is non-adjustable. Both the leash and the harness are assembled with glue. There is no thread stitching anywhere on these two articles. This looks to be a very, very strong, durable glue. Like all three harnesses we’ve tried out (one is Rabbitgoo brand) ALL of them do slide a bit sideways off-center from cat’s spinal longitude, but it isn’t any crisis thanks to the great range of adjustability of the collar and rear circingle on this Pidan harness.
Pidan could possibly remedy this leftward leaning tendency of this harness by using a slightly rounded , contoured blocking form during the glue pressing assembly phase of the collar part itelf.
If they did this it would bump the price up a bit , but it would work to everyone’s benefit.
Overall, I would definitely continue buying this Pidan harness whenever Marcus needs this one replaced.
I continue to marvel at how Marcus transformed instantly from a defensive, headshy cat –into a cat that hears me snap assemble the POM snaps /unsnap them to give blind boy an audible que… and he hurries to the door, sits waiting , lashing his tail for me to hurry up and snap his harness on “right NOW, Mom!”. Yes, he does this now, instead of running from me when it’s harness walk time.
Marcus is strictly an indoor cat, so when he has to step outside in the future hot weather months this streamlined, minimal materials style harness won’t roast him like the bulky vest style harnesses probably would.
Tip: always make sure you don’t accidentally trap your cat’s hair inside any snaps of any cat harness . That would be an ouch situation.

This leash paired w/ a booster seat helps my Cerebellar Hypoplasia cat in car rides to vet
Preface/background: Waffles was born in December 2022 with (mild) Cerebellar hypoplasia also referred to as CH or “Wobbly Cat Syndrome.” This is a disorder where the brain doesn’t fully develop neurologically and the cat can have uncoordinated and/or jerky movements along with balance issues. Some cats
are severe and have trouble walking along with other things and some have a more mild form. My cat, Waffles is mild and for example can’t jump from the floor to a couch or bed, wiggle butt, when he runs in the house he sounds like an elephant bc he runs & walks heavy, can’t stand up & stretch his legs out on you when he wants held or like when you’re making food or getting his ready like some cats do, he wags his tail when you talk to him. He also thinks I’m his mom & is attached to me like a kitten to their momma in regards to following me, crying for me if I’m not in the same room, etc. You wouldn’t know he had by looking at him other than the way he sits and “loafs.” A comparing would be like a human that has cerebral palsy.
Review: I wanted to give a background or preface to my review so other folks with a cat like mine or any cat in general, thinking about this leash will have helpful information.
When Waffles was a baby, a vet trip in a carrier was just a regular trip and he didn’t cry. Well, as he has gotten older, the last 2 trips he cried almost the whole time. The one I couldn’t take him out bc it was just me driving & him in the carrier in the passenger seat. (I’d give him treats to calm him down). This last time, my husband was driving & I had him in the carrier on my lap. I finally let him out & all he wanted to do was look out the windshield & window. And didn’t cry once & let me hold him the entire time, he wanted to face forward so his back/spine was against me (like holding a kid).
I came upon a few videos on social media platforms where ppl had leashes for their cats (one with CH) and a booster. I didn’t want a leash to walk him, so I never bought one. But when I seen thr one with a booster & the cat sleeping, I thought it would be great for Waffles. I started searching & bc of his issue with CH in regards to balance & coordination, I didn’t want to get a vest type bc I was thinking it would be more confining and really mess with his balance. I choose to buy this leash when I came upon it bc of it giving more “freedom of movement” for my cat when he was put down to walk, plus the leash would work with a booster. I then purchased the UNICITII booster for small dogs & cats & put it in my Explorer & tried out the leash.
In the video, this was his 1st time ever on a leash, which he done phenomenal on for any cat, bit especially great for a Cerebellar Hypoplasia cat! He absolutely loved being in the booster. He did get a little tangled, so that is a balancing act on the length of the leash/harness you give them so they can’t escape. You can clearly see the next day (day 2) the leash paired with the booster, that he loved it. And the best part, which I love, I can take him like.this to the vet and then put him.in the carrier before I take him inside. It’s a win-win for us. No stressing him bc he isn’t confined anymore in a carrier where he can’t see & doesn’t is totally unbalanced (think eyes closed & feel like your moving sensation). No he can watch out the window and balance himself with a combo of the leash & booster. And no stress or heartbreak on me bc he is crying the whole ride to the vet.
If you’ve read this far, as you can see the leash is great & less confining than other types. I highly recommend this one, even if it’s just a starter leash bc it is a great value for the money! And let’s nor forget the color is super cute and not just plain jane, too!
Please give me a thumbs up of this review was helpful and/or you gained any insight from my review 🙂

I got this cat harness and leash to use in conjunction with another harness. This harness I use specifically if I want my cat to be comfortable in a harness for extended periods of time (such as on an airplane) and not escape. Finding a harness that combines comfort, style, and escape-proof security has been a priority for me, and even a bit of a challenge as my cat is still growing. I have found that a lot of harnesses are not designed for her body type (she is quite long compared to other cats) and I wanted her to have enough space from her neck to the strap that goes behind her arms (armpit area). It never seemed to be long enough for her, until I found this harness. It was a good fit and she tolerates it as we go on adventures together. Regardless if I’m using this harness or the other adventure harness, I always use this leash. It’s amazing. Its sleek and modern and it has a round attachment. It is secure and comfortable and just long enough for her to feel like she is exploring, but also gives me that security that I need to keep her safe. I like how this harness is very lightweight too. As for escape proof… this is the only harness my cat has not been able to come out of. I have tried many and when she gets spooked this is the one that I feel the most secure with. I also really like how putting on this harness is a breeze, thanks to the simple two clasps (one around her neck and one around her body). She doesn’t like having harnesses pulled over her head.

This is a perfect fit for our slender Devon Rex who is quite the escape artist
