Adding my one of my cats to into the mix. This is him from a few months ago, wanting to get up onto someone's roof! We walk twice a day and have been doing so for 10 years! He's 15 years old and I've had him since he was 5.

Awesome cat. Are you actually able to get him to walk on the leash??

[–] unexplaineditem@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yep. I trained him when I got him, age 5. It wasn't that hard. When I get his walking jacket and leash out now he gets excited and waits for me to put it on and then goes to the front door and waits impatiently for me to walk him.

Alex doesn't look a day over 5

aaw. He's only started to slow down in the last year. Unfortunately we were attacked by a dog in our front yard a month or so ago and it's put a little dent in his confidence. Mind you, his confidence was ridiculous to begin with. He does have his little old man modes though and he's gone completely deaf.
