Yes, it is possible to train a cat like the Japanese Bobtail to walk on a leash. Some experts recommend leash training your bobtail when he’s young and more willing to learn. Older cats can be trained as well, but it will probably take more time and patience. When using the leash, ask your vet if your cat should be wearing a harness or if attaching the leash to the collar will work. Harnesses and collars vary by breed and size so be sure to choose the appropriate one for your cat. It is recommended that you start training your cat inside your home. This will allow your cat to grow accustomed to the leash and harness while in a familiar environment. Remember to reward your cat for positive accomplishments. Start slow and be patient.
