| Lil Pals Harness??? Help us please My husband and I are concerned about the lil pals harness. Lizzie is a little over 3 months old and weighs 1.8 pounds. Is the lil pals harness okay to use on her? We have been confused on exactly how to put it on her....from the pics that I find online, it looks like it will still pull on her trachea, even when we put it on her like the pics show!!??? This is the only kind that fits her the best....any others are still too big on her ....please help. I am leaving to go out of town for work and have to take her with me. I am so nervous about taking her and this harness not working right or being the right one for her. Please help us!!!! |

| Is this the one with the flower that slides down and tightens?? When putting on a step in harness I always lay it on the floor so its making the "triangles" and put one foot in each "triangle". I'm guessing with the Lil' Pals one you would then slip the leash part over her head and tighten it with the flower.. Did you buy it locally?? If so maybe they can help you put it on if your having trouble with it

| Honestly, I wouldn't use that harness as I share your same concerns. It gies around the belly, and again around the neck. How does that not strain the trachea? Have you checked the kitten section? A step in harness from Petco or Petsmart?

| I have one of those harnesses- I keep it in my bag for emergencies- I don't find that it gets too close to the neck area.
