Balcony Cat

Hello everyone!

So, you probably know by now that I have an adorable cat.

Her name is Bella, and although she can be shy with new people, she loves attention from @thecastle and I. I've recently gotten into the habit of letting her out on the balcony with me. We live in an apartment, and the view used to be pretty nice, but now they put a new building up next door. Even so, the cat still enjoys her fresh air, bird sounds, and just the only feeling of being outside she can get. It's pretty much normal for her to follow me out there now.

She used to just sit in the windows, and watch everything.

If I couldn't find her, I would just look for a cat shaped shadow behind the shades. Or maybe a tail dangling out from them

Or, just sit on my desk and soak up the sun.

My desk gets a decent amount of sun light because of our huge windows. She also gets a nice high view of outside from there.

But, she finally got curious enough to go outside.

And now she's addicted. Sometimes she will just wait at the sliding door for me to open it. At first she would only go out when I was out there, but now she will venture out on her own. I would decorate it with a cat bed or something, if we weren't moving in two months. I hope she has a decent view at the next place we move to.

She even follows me outside at night time now.

It gets really dark on the balcony, so sometimes she just vanishes in the shadows, and I have to shine my phone light to make sure she's even still out there with me. We've watched quite a few sunsets together now, but storms are a little too spooky for her. I love sitting on the balcony and watching storms go by, though.

Kind of spooky when you accidentally use flash...

I also kind of feel bad that she was probably seeing dots in her eyes after that.

It's probably obvious that I take a lot of photos of my cat.

I mean, she's always being cute, so it's hard not to snap a picture to look at later. I've never taken so many photos of one thing, until I got Bella. Sometimes she can tell when I'm taking a picture, and she will either run away, or try to look extra cute. Depends on her mood I guess.

I hope you enjoyed the photos. If you like me sharing the catventures, I will share some more in the future. Maybe I'll document her road trip when we move. hehe.

If you want to see more photos of her, and some older ones as well, I have this ALBUM.
