Yes, you can use a leash on a cat; I do it all the time. It's best to start them out at a younger age, but even if they are adult cats, they can still be trained by using a harness and a leash. Try starting out slow, like walking them around the yard with a harness and leash. For awhile, they may just roll over or lay down; just pick them back up and place them in a standing position. I t takes a while to get used to the harness and leash. Cat treats could help to promote a good response.
