Lord Dudley was looking stylish as we headed outside to walk.
.

.
And by walk, of course I mean sit.
.

.
My attempts to get his Lordship up and on his feet were not well received.
.

.
After some futile tugging and a bit of cajoling, I did manage to get the little bugger moving…
.

.
But only as far as the deck, where he immediately plopped down under a chair.
Walking the cat….
It’s a process.
.
I used to try and walk my cats. I called it a cat drag and gave up!

I try not to drag…. which is why he does a lot of sitting.

Our cats are raising a paw in solidarity with their oppressed brother.

Geesh. I didn’t even think of the possibilities of strike lines and protests.

Tie him outside. When he realizes he CAN’T walk around, it’ll change his tune.

Reverse psychology? That could work.

We had a cat I’d occasionally take out for a stroll around the yard. He’d immediately start eating grass. I’d tell him not to and he’d run to the door and give me a look that clearly said, “If I can’t do what I want then I’m going in!”

At least he wanted to do something. All Dudley wants to do is sit…

Oh silly, silly River. Don’t you know you can’t walk a cat? They walk their humans…lol.

This one doesn’t even do that.

Is it one of those retractable leads? They’re quite long. He might get a move on with one of those. But maybe it’s the time of day too? He might take off like a rocket at sunset?

It’s not the travel, just the shirt one that came with the harness. If the whole walking thing works out I’ll get one.

We would shake the leash and say, “Tigger . . . want to go out?” If he did, he made a beeline for the front door. If he didn’t, he just looked at us ~ our cue to hang the leash up and do something else.
But there still was lots of just sitting in the sun or sitting in the shade involved. It wasn’t “exercise.”

He seems to enjoy the outdoors….. just from a reclined position.
