In my experience, a cat who wants to escape from something like a harness will eventually find a way. I do think that this type tends to work a little better: I also think training is very important: put the harness on for very short periods of time while offering food or a treat and gradually work your way up to longer time. If he starts to get upset with the harness training is over and you should take it off. All harness time should be fun! Once he seems comfortable you can then try adding a lead.

I suggest you put some Feliway diffusers in your house starting about a week before the dog is to come over. This is basically "happy cat" pheromones and they really work to decrease stress. Their website has a lot of great information. ( https://www.feliway.com/uk/Products/FELIWAY-CLASSIC-Diffuser ) Also, make a "safe space" for your cat so that, if needed, she can get away from the dog. The best way to do this is to put a baby gate up across the door to one room so that the cat can get in but the dog can't. Put the litter box, food and water in there. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

This is tricky since chasing the cat is it's owner reward. You should keep a tether on Deter in the house and whenever he tries to bother Pepper you should ask him to sit or go to his bed. You should not allow them to be around each other unsupervised and make sure that Pepper has plenty of places where she can escape - cat trees or other elevated places are particularly helpful. If it's continuing you may want to get a behaviorist involved - ask your vet for a referral. This is an article that outlines some training you could work on at home.
