I got a new leash today that is longer than my old one! We hardly ever used the old one except a couple of times. However this new one is for serious training for me to learn how to leash walk. I have always walked with my humans without a leash but in recent months I did something that made my Meowma and Purr-Sis worry about me. I sat down a foot from the sidewalk in the road while we (including the dog) were walking. Then a car came and even though it was not too close to me, saw me, slowed down, and went around. This isn't the first time they've pounced on my tail for doing something dangerous on our walks. But it reinforced for them the idea that if they put a leash on me I would be much safer. They also think our walks would be a lot more enjoyable and waste less time because they wouldn't have to wait for when I finally decide to rejoin them; I would be right at their side. My Purr Sis would be very happy for that to happen!! But I wouldn't be...I like roaming in yards and making the dog and my Humans wait for me!
