@@mikebachman363 yes, but with the right gears (shoes and sticks rented for $32) It helps a lot. A few years ago. We did with only regular shoes and no stick. It’s was hard. Lots of people with children only do it for 1/2 of a mile and turn around. We do it with two granddaughters, they love it.
@@StoutProper it’s about 45 minutes from St George, southern Utah. We took our granddaughter to the soccer tournament in Park City. We live in San Diego and Zion is on our way to Park City. My daughter wanted to do the Narrow. Two birds with one stone, why not. And my granddaughter soccer team ( SDSC SURF) won the Park City Extreme Cup tournament.
Monkey is not an outside cat. He was a little over weight. His owner tricks him to walk by carrying half way then let him walk half way home. He would stop when the car passing by.
Cass may be a little slower to train to the leash, but the real barrier is not their independent nature but the resistance of their owners. Their owners don't have the patience but they also frequently love the Mystique of a cat and it's aloofness. They hate to damage that image for themselves or others by training it to do things that dogs will do. So they let them outside to kill birds and get run over instead.
Growing up, if our cats went outside, they were on leshes that were tied to a log. They would drag the log all over the place. That way, if they needed, they could get away.
My neighbors would come to see why I was standing with a tree on a pink leash. Then they'd stand there admiring my beautiful cat stretched out on a low limb.
My Dallas kitty used to love being outside on a leash 🥰 he sniffed everything, loved flowers and laying in the grass with the warm sun on his golden face. 🐱☀️
Monkey is my neighbor cat. His favorite spot is on top of the sofa next to the window. He's a little over weight. His master tries to get him to walk everyday by carrying from home about half way on the loop then puts him down on leash so he has to walk back home. It works, his weight is under control.
