I know that most people use dogs for sledding races such as the Iditarod, but I was wondering if it's illegal in most places to sneak a few stray cats off of the street to use in place of dogs for my sledding team.
The only dog I would plan to have on my team is a Havanese I could borrow from the neighbor girl; every sledding team needs a good leader. The dog could be in charge of all of the cats, but will I get in trouble if someone sees me taking cats off the street? There always is a chance that the cat does in fact belong to someone; so, wouldn't people be concerned about someone who is taking stray cats and maybe accidentally their house cat? ...perhaps concerned enough to create a law against it?
I would like the general laws regarding snatching cats off of the street because I want to have cats from various places so as to have a culturally diverse sled racing team.

No but I would recommend a good pair of thick leather gloves - it is difficult to put them in their harnesses. Been there, done that.

for some reason i feel somewhere you may be the bit serious, otherwise you have a creative imagination. none the less i don't think your plan would work as to cat's in the snow. plus the weight factor of you verses the cat's. the dog would have to be seriously socialized w/ his teamates, or there wouldn't be a team. as to your law i do believe that is theft w/ a punishable crime.

Our former outdoor cats took up to 3 years before I could touch them, and once they were brought indoors took another year before they were 100% calm in the house. Give it time. All her life humans = danger/death. It takes more than a month to have a cat trust a human.

You have way too much time on your hand, plus cats will not work, have'nt you heard that "dogs have masters and cats have servants".

I do hope you are joking.
And anyway, cats can't be led by anyone but themselves, much less a dog!
