When I first let Miez into the garden she was afraid my landlord (who lives below). Even though she loves meeting new people inside my apartment it took her over a year to befriend him.
Meine (sonst reine) Wohnungskatze traut sich viel mehr seit sie in den Garten darf
Anfangs hatte Miez große Angst vor meinem Vermieter (der im Erdgeschoß wohnt). Obwohl sie sich in der Wohnung jedem neuen Besuch anbiedert hat sie draußen über ein Jahr gebraucht sich mit ihm anzufreunden.
Also after now two years of almost daily garden time she just started climbing trees. She meows a lot at me and I talk to her reassuringly so that my old gal of almost 11 years of age doesn't panic.
Nun nach zwo Jahren fast täglicher Gartenbesuche fängt sie sogar an von alleine auf Bäume zu klettern. Sie maunzt dabei oft und ich rede ihr ermutigend zu damit sie schön ruhig bleibt.
Such a sweet kitty- she's lucky to have an awesome cat parent like you.
Thank you very much for your kind words. I hope she'll be as happy in her new garden when I move even if it is smaller. It'll definitely be a better apartment for her as I'm moving into my hometown (small city of 13k people), as she'll have by far more visitors then currently.
I'm sure a nice pot of cat grass or cat nip will entice her into her new garden space.
