Small dogs and cats
Retractable Leash for Small Dogs and Cats, 5 m
Five metres of tape in a body the size of a phone. For a pavement it is too much — for a park, or a cat on a harness, it is the length that lets the animal move.
The shell is sage green with a yellow grip, the brake is a thumb slide with a lock, and the hook is a light swivel. One size, one length.
A closer look
What's in it: brake, disc, clip
The disc
Flush side plate, so it slips into a pocket without catching.
The clip
Light swivel hook, small enough for a cat harness.
One size
Sizing: one size

Full description
A retractable lead in a soft green and yellow two-tone housing, with a smooth recoil and a 5 m tape. Small and light enough for a small dog or a cat that walks on a line, with a brake under the thumb rather than a strap in the hand.
What you get
- 5 m tape
- Two-tone green and yellow housing
- Brake button to lock the length
- For small and medium dogs, and for cats
Choosing a lead length
5 m is a park length, not a pavement one. If most of your walking is on a street, a retractable is the wrong tool and a 1.5 m fixed lead gives you more control - the tape is worth having where the dog can safely range.
Using a retractable safely
Keep the line locked short near roads and let it out only where there is room. Press the brake to stop the tape rather than grabbing it, and check the tape for nicks after walks along walls or fences.
Care
Wipe the housing dry and check the tape near the clip for fraying.
See the AirTag Dog Harness for Large Dogs, Reflective as well, or browse the whole Dog Walking range and our Pet Apparel.
Before you order
Good to know.
Is 5 m too long for a pavement?
It is. Lock it at two metres for a pavement and let it out in a park — that is what the brake is for.
Can a cat use the 5 m retractable leash?
On a harness, yes. This size is bought for cats as often as for small dogs.
How do I clean the 5 m retractable leash?
Wipe the shell with a damp cloth and keep grit out of the tape entry.
Does it have a brake?
Yes. A brake button under the thumb locks the tape at any length — press it to stop the tape rather than grabbing the line.
How long does shipping take?
Orders dispatch in 1–2 business days. US and EU delivery takes 7–12 business days, with tracking emailed on dispatch.
Will I have to pay customs or import duties?
No. Prices and shipping include import duties and taxes for the destinations we ship to.
Can I return it if my pet won't wear it?
Yes — 7 days from delivery, or 14 days in the EU and UK. Email iris@ipetbliss.com and we'll send return instructions.
