The Only Mesh Harness That Won't Damage Your Cat's Fur.
Most mesh harnesses abrade and mat fur. The Kitty Holster® Koolnit Mesh is different: athletic mesh on the outside for maximum airflow, soft 100% cotton muslin lining on the inside to protect your cat's coat.
Invented by a scientist, tested by rescues. As featured in Women's Insider.
Every order includes our signature training guide, "How to Train Your Cat to Walk on a Leash."
- Cool Outside. Gentle Inside. Unlike cheap mesh harnesses that rub fur raw, ours features a breathable outer mesh layer with a protective cotton muslin lining—delivering cooling comfort without the friction.
- All the Security. None of the Overheating. Our veterinarian-recommended wraparound design in a dual-layer construction that keeps cats secure in hot weather, thick coats, or active outdoor adventures.
- Handmade Quality You Can Feel: Handmade in the USA with adjustable Velcro closures and even pressure distribution across the chest. Trusted by 50,000+ cat owners who refuse to compromise on comfort or safety.
