Sally’s tail is amazing. Clementine would be so jealous. I’ll have to try to get a photo of it at full mast, you won’t believe it!

I think that my kittens are a little more easy-going than Nicholas II. I think the first time that I put the harnesses on, I did something to distract them after I got them geared up – got a toy out or something. They never got too bothered about it. I didn’t try the leads at all for a few weeks, then when I did, I had treats. Sally will totally walk with me, he is food motivated. Anabel isn’t, so if I put her lead on, I have to pick her up. I need to work with her with a toy, I think that will work for her, I just haven’t done it yet.

Alexandra had a tail like that for about 4 years and then not so fat. She was a full blood Maine Coon.

How did you train the kittens to harness and leads. I have put a harness on Nikolas 5 times. He thrashes for 30 to 40 min and then starts to cry pitifully. I can’t stand it, so of course I take it off. The leash is another non-starter. He just lays down.
