1
Buy a thin belt about ½ inch wide. Wider belts will be stiff and uncomfortable for your fat cat.
-
2
Slice 2 inches off the notched end of the belt, not the buckle end. Sew the 2-inch piece to make a loop.

3
Insert the two ends of the belt through your mini-loop so that you have a big loop on one side of the mini-loop and the two loose ends on the other.
-
4
Put your cat's head through the big loop and adjust the loop to the size of the head. The mini-loop will be at the back of the cat's head.
-
5
Cross the ends of the former belt, now a harness, over the cat's back and underneath.
-
6
Buckle the harness behind the cat's front legs. When you buckle the harness, choose a hole so that the cat can't escape, but also so that it won't choke.
-
7
Attach a leash to the mini-loop and take your fat cat for a walk.
