Can you try putting a harness on Marbles during his supervised visits
so he can't get away and chase Abbey and Scottie? I suppose that
would take getting Marbles used to a harness first for a couple of
days before taking him out in it.

I have a harness and did put him in it about 3 times but he kept falling

over
when he had it on and looking pretty pitiful so I gave up.


Heh, this reminds me of my first cat when I tried to walk her, back in the
70's. She would just... flop. I gave up after several tries. She really
didn't 'get it'. ;-)

I suppose I should
get a walking jacket but I haven't felt like sinking more money into this
fiasco right now. Everything I try costs $ and never seems to improve

anything
much.


IME, just time. Plenty of it, maybe, but eventually... time works.
