My cat weighs 9.5lbs and girth is exactly 14 in. Should I get a Medium or Large?

I think medium because my cat is approx. 6-7lbs and I used a size small for her.

I bought large and my baby MaXx escapes. I'm going to try medium. And my MaXx is big.

I'm no expert but it sounds like you should purchase a medium harness. Good luck hope I helped.

At that weight a medium would do, but with the girth you mentioned a large is the best choice. My 9ish pound Maine Coon I just measured him he was 14 inches girth too (hair LOL) - and the medium was a little tight on him, I actually put it on him. I would go with the large. But I use the harness on many cats at our shelter and the medium will fit some cats up to 13 pounds, so girth is a big factor.

I would go with a large. I have a cat about that size, and the medium was too small.

Large, based on the girth. The medium was a little tight and uncomfortable for my cats; I have two ragdolls. The large was easier to fit snugly without being too binding.

Medium. I have one of these in every size. Medium fits almost all cats. Small is for cats under 7lbs, and youd need a bengal to use a large.

The large is just right for my 14 pound cat - can stretch out and turn and stand up - head hits the top but it's soft so -- I'm thinking yes if your shitzu isn't planning to run around in it

In general, go off the weight of the cat. That is how they are sized. It should tell the recommended weight when you select each size. My 13Lb kitty has big paws so we get large for him but medium for the smaller 10lb kitty, she's generally more petite.

I would buy the size that is right for your cat's weight ... if he is 13lbs or more, consider the Large ... if he is really big (like 20lbs+), consider a Dog size Small ...

Our cat is approximately 15" from top of head to base of tail and thin and the small is still a smidge big on her, so I'd definitely suggest the small. Best of luck to you and your kitty!

I would probably go for a large. The medium just fits our large cat but I'm thinking of upsizing her to a large as it's very tight.

I have a 13 pound Bichon, and the medium fits her nicely. I have never had a cat, so it is hard for me to compare the two. It is really an adorable harness. Barbara

I had gotten a medium- large for my cat- eight pounds or so. probably a . it would have fit but it also would have taken an army to fasten it around her neck. i returned this.

I bought a large for my 12-pound cat and it works fine. I have to wrap it pretty tightly.

My cat is appx. 10 pounds, I got the large so he'd be comfortable but it works good for his size. I think the regular may have been too small.

They are typically sized based on wieght. My female kitty weighs 14 pounds and she wears a medium. I would suggest ordering your first set based on your cat's weight and then if your cat successfully removes them, go down one size...or use more glue :-)

Get a large. My cat is 17 pounds and the large had to reach a bit on her. But the range that you can adjust is considerable, so even if you have to make it tighter, the large will probably word. Also, 12 pounds is pretty big for most kitties in my experience.

I bought a medium thinking it would fit any 4 of my cats but now I wish I would have bought the large. It is VERY snug on my 10 and 13 lb. cats so I would suggest a large.

I would recommend Large - as the overall neck girth is 10".the Medium is only 8" and it will be too small for your cat.

My cat is almost 12 lbs we just got him the med -lg. Size. The best thing is to measure your cat. Jackson Galaxy website might be helpful and Youtube.

My cat is 8 pounds and the small fits her perfectly. I assume your puppy will grow, so if it's a tad big, he will grow into it.

The medium works very well for my 7 lb. Chihuahua. He can even lay down in it. You may want to go with the large for your 14 lb. Dachshund for this reason. Happy trails!
