Weekend Snippets

What a glorious weekend!  We had such great weather and we were lucky enough to spend the majority of it outside...

Olivia had a great playdate, Max had flag football (which is so good!) and we got Smith a harness and tie-out for the backyard.  He has been desperate to join us while we are outside but because we are located on the corner of a couple of busy streets I haven't let him out before.  I wasn't sure how it would go (or if he'd even let me put the harness on) but he loves it!  After only 2 days, he sits nicely while I put on his harness and has stopped trying to bite my hand off when I undo it...Has any one else had experience with a cat on a leash?  Any tips or tricks to keeping them safe and happy?
