Ha ha! Nope. Believe me, taking a cat for a walk is nothing like taking a dog out. I started taking him out when he was seven weeks old. Even then he was screaming to go out through the cat flap (which I pretty soon had to block up), following next door’s cat, who at that time was a frequent visitor.
I’ve got him on a 20 foot retractable lead, attached to a shorter lead, so I can keep a tight rein on him when we’re on the pavement, crossing the road so on, and on a long lead when we’re we’re over somewhere like the park, so he can have a run around, stalk birds (plastic bags, leaves etc), climb trees, jump on walls and all the rest of it.
Naturally we get a few ( did I say a few?) strange looks, but most people are fascinated and delighted to see a cat on a lead. Trust me, we have all kinds of fun.
