Have you ever seen a cat who walks on a leash? I thoroughly enjoy walking on a leash. It helps me to expand my territories and feel the world through new means.
Taking your cat for a walk is a very good thing if you have a cat who is obsessed with trying to dart through the door between your legs. Most of us kitties can't tell you that we genuinely just want fresh air, or to roll around in the sand and chase ants.
Some of us felines resort to attacking your feet to get your attention. We just want to lay down in the yard in a sunny spot and watch you do human stuff.. Or climb a tree and finally catch that squirrel that has been mocking us... We will tear around the house like a bunch of crazies if we don't get our way..., and if that neighbor cat keeps pooping in your flower bed, don't look at us.. You kept us locked up so we couldn't mark our territory to protect you!
Some of us suck, and won#t actually walk on the leash like a dog.. We move when we are ready to and not a moment sooner.. This is because we want to make sure we have taken in all of our surroundings and that it is safe for us to move... Or it could be because we thought we saw a red dot or a bird... We don't mean to be lame.. We just are... Some kitties think they are dogs and will walk at your side and look forward to the long walks and long journeys.
Me, I require more than that.. I require to be walked where I am comfortable and in only small amounts.
I like to get used to my home base and roll around on the concrete to mark where my home is. I like to watch little ants crawl around and eat the bugs that get too close to me.. I am a good kitty.
Exploring random snow tunnels is cool too. I love to explore snow tunnels. My mom/owner doesn't let me get in them too far, but she will let me poke my head inside the tunnels and sniff sniff. Exploring the unknown for a cat, is almost the equivalent of a human going to work. It tires us out and all we want to do is sleep afterwards and trip on some really good catnip..
Well.. On that note I end my blog... It is time for me to go niptrippin. Ciao everyone!
