Can cats really be walked on a leash?
Yes. When it comes to being walked on a leash, cats have been living in the large shadows of their canine neighbours. But leash-training cats is a relatively easy thing to do, provided this activity is understood in terms of the many unique aspects of feline behavior. By learning to view leash-training in terms of natural cat behaviors, owners can avoid mishandling their cats, which leads to inevitable failure (and occasionally claw and bite marks). Walk Your Cat explains how cats learn and how to train them. It also explains the importance of motivation for leash-training cats. With these basic tools, the book demonstrates unequivocally that cats can indeed be leash-trained!
