Measure your Cat for their Harness
What you'll need
You'll need a soft tape measurer,
like those found in sewing cuts. If you don’t have one piece of string or
shoelace should do if you don't have one on hand!
Front Measurement
Measure a girth around your cat’s neck, right
above the collarbones.
Back Measurement
Measure a girth around your cat’s chest, just behind the front legs
Harnesses should fit comfortably,
but not too tightly.
You should be able to slip a maximum of two fingers between the harness
and your cat's skin if he is wearing it correctly - this will ensure that they
cannot remove their harness on their own or break free.

Harness Tips
-
For very Furry Cats
For those with furry cats: make sure you measure the skin and not their fur! You want your harness to fit right around them, so it isn't too loose.

Reevaluate size
It is important to check the size of your harness often and adjust it as necessary, especially in kittens. Kittens grow quickly! We recommend every 6 months.
