Will the male cat come back after leaving home for a few days

The situation of male cats leaving home can be divided into two types: voluntary leaving home and unconscious leaving home. Cats that take the initiative to leave home have a strong desire to leave. Either cats that have been homeless before are yearning for freedom, or they may be cats that are in estrus and are looking for a mate. Cats that leave home unconsciously are more likely to be caused by strong curiosity, and they may just slip out when the doors and windows are not closed tightly.

Generally speaking, cats that take the initiative to leave home have better survival abilities in the wild, and they generally adapt better. But it doesn’t mean it won’t come back at all. When it has a hard time outside and doesn’t have enough food, sleep or warmth, it will naturally return to a comfortable home. However, for cats that leave home unconsciously, their adaptability is not strong. If they are used to the domestic environment, it may be difficult for them to survive alone. They may be so scared that they hide in corners and cannot find their way home. It depends on the owner’s patience to search again and again.
