Any owner of a cat that lives exclusively indoors knows how dangerous it can be for it to “escape” out the door.

Here the animal faces many potential threats, such as an open window on the landing, poisonous substances intended to kill rodents, and so on.

The street has its own dangers: cars, other animals, and so on, and so forth.

Cats are probably aware of what awaits them outside, and they experience not just reverent fear, but a very real and tangible fear.

But why is an open door so attractive to pets?

The open door leaf lets in a multitude of enticing aromas.

Here is the answer to the question - cats are constantly trying to leave the apartment, because they want to expand their territory, gradually mastering new areas, and want to additionally get bright emotions, studying unfamiliar smells and sounds outside the door.
