A cat leash is useful for preventing the animal from running away during an outdoor walk. Made of nylon or leather, retractable or not, this accessory comes in various models to suit all tastes and needs.

Various reasons justify the purchase of a cat leash:

- this accessory is useful during an outdoor walk that can be stressful for a cat used to living in an apartment;

- a short walk allows the cat to exercise physically and lose weight;

- it helps to limit the animal's movements to prevent it from escaping or protect it from dangers;

- this accessory is also useful during breaks on a long car journey;

- some models offer an alternative to a cage during car trips.

The available models are made from different materials.

- Nylon accessories are appreciated for their strength and lightness. They come in different lengths and colors. Some models are offered with a matching collar or harness.

- Cords, often associated with a reel, are durable.

- Leather models are rare these days.

This accessory is available in various lengths to suit all uses:

- models with a length between 1.5 m and 2 m facilitate the control of the animal's movements and are thus suitable for outdoor walks;

- short models to attach to a harness can be used during car trips;

- long models from 5 to 10 m provide the animal with a great freedom of movement and are suitable for walks in large spaces;

- retractable versions with a cord are appreciated for their practicality.

A few tips are useful for walking a cat on a leash:

- the animal should get used to wearing a collar or a harness from an early age;

- well before starting the training, it is advisable to accustom the kitten to changing environments by occasionally taking it to visit a relative or a friend;

- playing (with a reward) is a good way to teach it not to remove its collar or harness;

- once accustomed to the device, the owner can start walking it in the garden;

- during an outdoor walk, the owner should always have a carrier bag on hand to protect the animal from unpleasant encounters.

Although it is unusual to walk a cat on a leash, this activity can bring the animal closer to its owner and become a pleasant routine. However, walks on the street should be avoided for safety reasons.
