my kitty Mochi is getting a little tubby.... and the vet said we should try taking him outside on a harness and lead for some good exercise. he's alright with wearing a harness. i had let him wear it around for a few days and he doesn't have any problems walking around in it anymore. the problem is that whenever i open the door, he's too scared to actually go outside. he does enjoy looking out though and sometimes he would sit a few steps outside the door as long as i'm there to pet him. he really loves looking at the birds that fly by but doesn't want to walk anywhere near them and sometimes a noise or something will spook him and he runs back inside. i adopted him from a shelter and he's about 9 months old. am i suppose to wait until he's a bit older or will he just be a timid house cat forever? if that's the case then i'll just lay off the treats and have more play time with him lmao
