Anyone else's cat not like going outside?

[Coldandfedup456]

My cat has outdoor access but she will usually be back in after 15-20 minutes, sometimes even 5 minutes. I know it's cold atm so maybe that's it?
I mean I don't mind, sometimes I worry she's not getting enough exercise but she plays indoors too. She's 6 years old.
Anyone else's cat?

Yes mine too.
Can’t say I blame them, this reflects my life too; it’s far too cold to be out for long this time of the year.

Mine's wanted to check outside every day for the last two months.

As soon as I've opened the door, he's decided 'Nope'.

He finally wandered out there this morning for five minutes/the quickest pee possible before coming back in to his heated fur blanket.

One of ours spends all day asleep inside and all night out. We have a cat flap so he comes and goes as he pleases but is definitely nocturnal. He's back at 7am on the dot for breakfast and then lounges round on our bed until tea time when he eats and scarpers again.

The other used to hate being inside, so much so that he was fed outside and we bought him an insulated outdoor igloo because I was worried about him freezing. He's 18 now and a bit arthritic and in the last year or so he's only spent time outside when it's really sunny and the cushions are out on the garden chairs. He's got his spot on the sofa in the conservatory that's now got a cat-shaped indent as he only really moves to eat and use the litter tray.

Mine will sit out on a sunny day but otherwise it's only for less than a minute!
