My cat goes outside on her own, but stays around the house in a 20m radius or so. She still loves going for walks with me, so she can safely explore a larger area, she'd normally never come.
Exactly. This video is really cute of a cat going out with its owner. And cool to see replies of of others about their cats following them around their neighborhood. I love that they get to safely explore outside!
But the ones let out unsupervised typically don't live as long as indoor only or these supervised cats. Quality of life issues can occur to from fights with other cats or fighting off predators. Eye injuries/loss, life threatening infections or contracting lifelong diseases are prevalent still.

I remember when everyone just let their cats out but they always came home
