So thinking about a harness and lead so he can walk round the back garden? Anyone walk a cat on a lead?

Also had anyone any tips on keeping a cat in a garden?
Seen a neighbors fences with little plastic spikes along the top to keep the cats out? Seen it in one of them free catalogues you get out of magazines? Properly designed for the job and not cruel to the cats?
My garden is catproofed. You put up 3ft angle irons at intervals along the top of the fence then attach wire netting (45 degree angle) so its leaning inwards. The cat climbs up but meets the wire and cant get out. Ive got 16 cats that are confined in this way I just make the garden very interesting for them with 8ft poles with rope wrapped round them, a wildlife pond and an outdoor cat scratcher plus 2 apple trees. None of these must be near the fence or they will use them to escape
