That’s so lovely! May also be the cat’s personality that it doesn’t need extra stimulation out of an abundance of energy. If you ever get another cat and it does do those things, it just needs to be kept busy. More playtime, going for walks, and working for its food a little. That usually leaves them pooped and they will just be super chill too! 

The fact that the stray stayed so chill throughout means it probably did not enjoy the high stress life of a stray. I’m sure he’s really thankful for you giving him a home. You better give him treats for being such a good boy!

He was a stray in our neighborhood (medium sized city but a residential area with a decent amount of green space) and our landlords (who raised their family in our house) said that he would always come by and around other houses in the area looking for food and people would always feed him, so yeah maybe he wasn't starving on the streets so much. But when my roommate first moved into this house, he quickly became accustomed to her and willingly came inside when she left the screen door open for him. Eventually he came inside more and more often until he ended up as our pet. 

He definitely is a rascal in some ways though. He'll steal your seat if we're sitting at the table and you get up, he'll whine at the door to get let out and then just stare at you and do nothing when you open the door, we've caught him going through trash before (or rather the evidence after the fact). We even had to install child locks on the fridge and mini-fridge because he figured out how to get his claw under the door frame and open it up. At first we thought one of us was absentmindedly leaving the fridge open but when we came downstairs one morning and saw sausage links strewn across the floor that was the proof we needed LOL.
