Brown and White Visitor!
-
So a brown and white cat has been appearing on my balcony for the past few weeks. I live on the second floor, so I can't imagine how a stray cat would get up there. All the balconies on the floor are connected with partitions between them, so it might be a neighbor's cat that they allow out on their balcony. But this time it spotted me behind the glass door, and meowed, so I had to let it in! It explored the whole place, and I offered it some cat food, but it wasn't interested. That leads me to believe the cat might be well fed, thus meaning it belongs to someone. But, there is no collar. I left the sliding door open so it can come and go, but I'm not going to deny that I considered "kidnapping" the cat. My last cat passed in 2014, and I would like another one. I must ask around to see if anyone else knows where the cat comes from. Right now, I just don't know if it's a stray or not.
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

If there's a common area in your building, like a lobby with a bulletin maybe you can photograph the cat and ask someone to send you an email if it's theirs.

Before you do decide to take the permanent step, and especially since it doesn't seem to be a feral, make sure you get the cat scanned for a microchip.

It's probably curious. Cats are like that. If you let it come and go as it pleases it will soon let you know if it wants to move in and adopt you. If it keeps disappearing for long periods, it probably has a home to go to. Just hope it's not an un-neutered tom!
