If you want this to be successful, you would be wise to devote time to harness training (i.e. getting used to the harness) first. Don't just put the harness on - it can be a bad experience for the cat and move you further from the goal of a walk.

Yes, the worst was when something startled her (sting from a thistle?) and she dashed for the door full speed, into the harness, did a looping. A good fit is essential, could have cause major injury!
