The
MetPet
Walking JacketTM
is the best cat harness available. Unlike conventional cat
harnesses, the Walking Jacket is both physically safe
and psychologically reassuring.

the
black cat is wearing a red
soft-sided WalkingJacketTM. Peter the orange and white cat is wearing a
blue hard-sided WalkingJacketTM.
A harness with thin straps that dig into
your cat's body can
cause
him to fear walking on leash. The MetPet WalkingJacketTM has wide 5/8" straps, curved plastic buckles and
smooth fabric that curls
gently around your cat. The patented MetPet.com Walking Jacket comes in
both the classic soft sided version and the hard sided version.
Soft-Sided and Hard-Sided Walking Jackets for Cats
Walking JacketTM
Soft-Sided $16.99
In standard and large sizes.
Walking JacketTM
Hard-Sided $18.99
In standard size.
The HardSided
Walking Jacket
has a perforated plastic insert
that fits around the body. The plastic is flexible enough to
curl around and under your cat and stay perfectly comfortable.
The HardSided Walking Jacket is about as stiff as the Elizabethan
collars used to prevent cats from licking wounds and the jacket will
be about twice the weight.
Every cat should have and know how to use a
Walking JacketTM. Cats are notoriously
slippery and difficult to hold on to when they are frightened or excited. The
Walking JacketTM
gives you extra holding power and safety for you and your cat.
