I have done my due diligence on harness training, but I was specifically wondering if anyone uses a second harness? My cat is very strong and flexible so I was scared he might slip out of his harness, which is this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQNFNDSD

He tolerates it well but I'm worried that it's too easy to get out of.

I was wondering if a second harness that was more strappy could act as a failsafe and if anyone here has done that.

I've never seen one unfortunately. I don't know if it exists, it's something that I've thought about seeing my cat escaping from regular harnesses no matter how secure it seems. The issue being that cats are flexible and if you allow them to pull backwards on a harness for even a second, they are slipping it.
