Why does the root motion animation make the prefab move in the opposite direction?

So basically I want to make a prefab (a cat) climb a wall, I wanna do it with basic root motion animation. Since I am new with unity and is my first time doing this I decided that I need to do a little bit of testing without any complicated animations, that being said, I made a simple animation, just moving the cat prefab, in the animation clip, the cat is moving on the +z axis.

HOWEVER, when I check the "root motion" check box and I click "Generate root motion curves" , instead of moving on the +z axis the cat is now moving on the -z axis, even if the cat is animated to move on the +z axis. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

I found the problem, I only used the position of the object in the unity animation, using the position PLUS the rotation will fix the problem.

Maybe your model is using different axys coordinates than Unity's. Blender for example has that problem.
