Slowly ease them in it by letting them sniff it and maybe put it on the back without puting it on all the way and maybe just keep doing that for a couple days and when you think it is not so scared try puting on all the way and let it walk around and get used to it before you take him or her for a walk! good luck!

Snugly but not so tight that you can't get 1 or even 2 fingers between the harness & the cat (easily).

Any looser than that & they may be able to wriggle out / get out just enough to get entangled.

Any tighter & it will cause the cat discomfort; possibly even pain.

in any event, you should choose a harness that has a bit if 'give' even if it's not fully elasticated.

A cat on a leash? I don't think so! You cant put a cat on a leash that's for dogs! Your supposed to let the cat out let it explore the area. Then when the cat is ready it will come back to your home. Cats always find their ways back home. They are very smart. Don't worry about it running away. Only worry about it running away when its older.

Could you put your cat on a lead and let it go in your back garden with you if it is an indoor cat?

You could try, But she/he probably wouldn't like it and would refuse to move. Good luck! Yes. But do not use a choker chain or a regular collar. Their throats are too delicate for a choker chain and the collars will just come right off. Use a harness and leash. And it will take a while for it to get used to it. If you cat is a more nervous cat, you should put only the harness on for short periods of time each day, making them longer gradually, until the cat is used to it. Then attach the leash and repeat. Then you can take the cat out. Some cats take right to it, however, and need no training.
