I've had to have a catheter several times. I found that placing the bag in a small bucket - 5 gal or a little smaller really helps me when I'm moving around the house. Just lift the handle and off u go.

Try a fabric shopping bag. Like the reusable ones they give you at the grocery store.
When I had my prostate surgery I had to wear a catheter for about 4 days.
They gave me a sturdy nylon bag that looked very unobtrusive so I could stroll around and
unless you looked really hard no one would notice.
