I have a cat that had been indoors all its life, when I lived in the mountain forests for a year I let her have some free reign, she took to it like a fish to water. There’s nothing at all unusual about a cat who likes to prowl around.
ack... “free rein” that is.
If the cat identifies as a dog, then it is racist not to refer to it as a dog
Our cat, Brutus, is a fanatic about stalking around outside. We have 16 acres & she lives on it all. (She named herself Brutus. I tried “Lambchop” & “Zippy”; but she hated those names. The kids across the hill used to just hoot & holler when I called “Lambchop”. I thought sure they had to be familiar with Shari Lewis & Lambchop.) Brutus comes in well after dark; but lately she has been wanting outside by 3:30 AM to go hunting. I call her “Brutus Butt”
