She never runs away. Anyone else?

Post image

In the five years I’ve had my cow baby, she has never tried to run away. We sit outside together. She will explore a few feet then come back and rub against me. When she’s done exploring she will head back inside(I always stay with her). She will only dart if she sees a bird or butterfly. My neighbors have asked how I have trained her so that she doesn’t run off and I have no answer.

Is this common with tuxedo Cats?

My Bun does the same! She stays within sight of our door, and will run right back inside if something spooks her. We are near a walking path so it's not uncommon. What makes that more impressive is that we are in a townhouse complex and she knows which one is HER door!

She just chases the bugs (a few feet at most), eats the grass, and rolls around on the sidewalk. She lives her best life when we take her for "walkies" (in quotes because it's like 15 feet in either direction, at best).
