Your cat has potential and could be ready for adventure with some patience and training. Just remember to start small, take it slow, and be patient with them. Follow their cues, and listen to them if they tell you they’re not quite ready for something.

It doesn’t sound like your cat will take to adventuring outdoors naturally, and that’s okay! Traveling and adventuring isn’t for every cat, and there’s nothing wrong with that whatsoever. With some hardcore patience and training, your cat could come around, but sticking to back porch or catio adventures instead might be the best idea. There are also lots of great indoor enrichment activities you and your cat can enjoy together.
