Pet strollerThis may seem a daft question, but does anyone have one for their cats, and use it?

No but I have thought about it on many occasions. Are you thinking of getting one? |

Yes, as both my cats are FIV positive. So they cannot go out loose and I thought it this would be a better way to enrich their lives. Also it means that they would be able to go out without being in direct contact with non FIV cats. But I know that I would get some very daft looks! |

A neighbour of my Mum has one for her elderly arthritic dog. She sarts off a walk with him on the lead and once he gets out of puff or sore she pops him in the stroller, continues the walk and then comes home. He seems to enjoy it as she gets stopped a lot by people asking why. So DInky gets lots of cuddles! |

I noticed that they come up mainly in the ebay dog section and the second hand ones seem to be from dog owners who had dogs with either heart or arthritic problems. But I have not seen anyone admitting they have used it for their cat. I guess because people generally let their cats out unaccompanied, but with my two it is not an option. At the end of the day, because they are housecats, I just want to give them something new in their lives, and as I cannot build a pen, this is next option. I just found this interesting blog post http://cat-chitchat.pictures-of-cats...-stroller.html |

I've seen them, but am almost 100% certain Leia would hate it! You get a lot of weird looks when you walk a harness trained cat also! But I've also met some nice people that way. |

I've often thought of getting one for Kindly, I don't think Imogen would be very impressed by it though! |

I have bought one, but I have yet to receive it as I only paid for it today. There is a park at the bottom of the next road which I plan to take them out when I get the courage to do so. I will update this thread when I have used it. If anyone else has used one in the meantime please reply! |

Thanks. Pickle has been trying to escape lately (it's normally Tigger, who is the one who is fond of trying to get outside) but fortunately I live in a block of flats, so he has only gone into the communal corridor, of which I have been able to chase him back into my flat. If they take to it, then they will have something new and interesting in their life and I am on a diet at the moment, so hopefully I shall lose some more weight. I plan to start it with very short walks initially, and then work it up so that they get an hour in the buggy. |
