@nobullyplz @a1ba @lunarised @mystik @lanodan @KashKustomer @eternalclassic @neo @lewdthewides @dave @zemichi @mystik @bajax I just experimented. I walked behind my apartment to the gazebo (a place I'm 95% sure he's never been before) and it took a little verbal coaxial but he followed me and then went around exploring and sniffing everything. Chasing bugs and playing with plants.

He didn't want to venture more than about 20 feet from me but as long as I was close by he felt safe enough to explore nearby. When we went back he ran ahead of me, stopping and waiting for me to catch up, then running ahead some more. Happy to get back to familiar territory.

I think he'll do great on walks. I think he'd do fine without a leash but I'd rather have one just in case. Especially with hazards like cars, stray dogs, etc.

Especially stray dogs. If there was no leash I could easily see him running for safety and possibly losing him or worse.

At least with a leash I can easily pull him to me and pick him up to keep him safe. I'd happily put my safety in jeopardy to keep Cornbread safe without any hesitation or second thought.

@sjw @zemichi @bajax @dave @lewdthewides @neo @KashKustomer @eternalclassic @nobullyplz @lanodan @mystik @lunarised never had a cat.

That sounds dangerous to me.

I actually remember how I saw one man jogging every morning when I was going to uni. He had a cat on his head.

@a1ba @zemichi @bajax @dave @lewdthewides @neo @KashKustomer @eternalclassic @nobullyplz @lanodan @mystik @lunarised not really dangerous. It was about 22:00 here so no traffic and I was actually going away from the road. The only real threat was a stray dog which is uncommon but I was preparing to grab him at a moment's notice, staying vigilant, and also running through contingency plans in my mind.

Looking back I'm surprised how much I planned and thought about all the possible risks in the spur of the moment.

Not too worried about him in front of my apartment (like right now) because he doesn't venture off more than 20 feet (about 6 metres) and if he feels threatened he'll run inside my apartment (he already has several times but he's becoming braver at a surprising rate).

Plus if there's an actual threat I can easily close the door before it becomes a danger. However, if I'm too slow and say a stray dog chases him inside he has plenty of places to be safe until I can remove the dog from my apartment (e.g. under the couch, on top of his cat tree, on top of my living room desk, on top of the kitchen table, etc. [and that's just downstairs!]).

So, I'm not too worried about a situation like this.

Cornbread knows where his home is and knows he'll always be safe there :ablobcatheartsqueeze:
