The second elastic arm 75 similarly includes a third arm portion 76, a fourth arm portion 77, and a protruding portion 78. In this way, the first elastic arms 71 and the second elastic arm 75 are shaped to extend from the basal portion 60, be folded back, and return to the basal portion 60. Thus achieved are a CPA 30 and a connector 10 that are short in length while ensuring sufficient flexibility of the first elastic arms 71 and the second elastic arm 75 when the catch protrusion 74 and the protruding portion 78 interfere with the housing 20. The connector including the CPA has a reduced length in a sliding direction while keeping elastic arms sufficiently flexible.
