Are these gloves good for sailing a hobie cat?

These gloves are waterproof and are made of tough material that I've lifted weights in them and they are still like new. Also, the durability is great and I recommend these for any water sport where you need a comfortable grip.

That is the exact reason these covers were purchased. The cat burned his paws.ER visit was $$. I put these on as soon as I am done cooking. They are "Purrfect" for the cat. I would highly recommend this product.

I really don't think so. After getting these I am not all too impressed with them. They fit tighter than expected and knife points go right through them. They are kinda slippery like wool or mitten style gloves. I went with hexarmor gloves instead. They really protect from cuts and lacerations on a level that is highly above the competition. look up their site you will love the gloves. They take a little bit to break in but after having them for 6 months they hold up well to the abuse I put them through. Hope this helps

Temperature wise they would be good, but for fireplaces I prefer the longer traditional thick leather lined gloves. They defintely have higher temperature range, but your lower arm is a little exposed in fireplace scenario.

I disagree with the previous answer: they are not very warm... they are somewhat warm. They dexterity is there but the intense grip of the rubber would make diminutive tasks difficult. I will be adding thin cotton glove liners to mine this year to provide a boost to insulation. Since I ride a bike with them, I don't have to worry about the added loss in dexterity. Theses gloves are not effective below 30F degrees.

Yes, I use them on my cats and on my rabbits who have thicker claws than the cats.

I suppose they help to the extent that any extra layer adds warmth. But I would not say they add anything special. I would go for silk glove liners as the best option for hands (get them from an equestrian store/online seller).

If they're a S/M then it would probably be best to go with an M. You don't want the harness to fit too tightly or the cat won't be able to move properly or have ease of breathing.

I don't feel that they slip much and they don't cover a substantial part of your wrist, so I would think it should work. I love these gloves! I want to get some heavier ones now.

My cat isn't that big, but he is over 12 pounds and it doesn't budge in the least bit. The manufacturer says they use them for their 20 pound cat, so I think you would be fine. The straps have a rubbery back side to them so they grip really well.

Absolutely. They fit snug, I don't really want loose gloves. They have a lot of friction and recover very quickly if they get dirt or water on them. Would definitely buy them again.

Hi, honestly not sure I used them on kennel for cats. They seemed pretty universal though.

Yes, I bought these gloves for my husband last year because he rides a motorcycle. I can't even think how many times he has told me he loves those gloves. So, yes I recommend them.

(I have the extra large size for our Newfoundlands.) If it were a strong cat, yes. The magnets hold the two heavy, plastic flaps down. I don't have a cat, but I imagine it would be difficult but possible if that cat is determined.

Yes, have 4 in use on the Extreme Weather Kitty Pads and our feral cats love them. Initially they did have the elastic bands but newer ones are held in place with zippers. Easy to go on and off, to launder, and stay warm. I can use them sometimes for 2 years, but most generally replace them every year. Cheap investment for peace of mind.

They are more for dogs with thick nails. I use them for my 65lb dog. But I dont see why you cant use them on your cat, this will probably last you forever.

They should prove to be OK with those items, so long as they are not too small in size. The fingertips have a better feel than most gloves with this quality of warmth do. The index fingers on the gloves have a small patch of leather-ish fabric that may or may not serve a purpose, depending on use. I have used them in EMS (ambulance patient care) and have had no problems with tearing surgical tape, attaching straps and patient securing gear, and operated other medical devices with them on. Obviously, they are going to pose a barrier problem of some sorts, but overall, I think they are better than most (of similar quality) in fingertip feel and comfort. Hope that helps!
