I have them on for hours straight with no issues. The main issue is the middle strap. and wont trip him up. And it looks attractive too. unlike last years which were stretchy and amazing. My cat now has a little bit of privacy when he has to eliminate and it masks the litter box from my houseguests! It’s very easy to clean, I just tossed it in the dryer. I did not realize what a burden I had been feeling over vacuuming my floors - or the need to - and the freedom this little gadget has given me. Its still miles above Beats or some lower end Bose. Just dull, like I say.
