Just because a cat can’t see, it doesn’t mean she can’t enjoy the great outdoors.

Patrick Carl, a 28-year-old filmmaker from Cork City, Ireland, proved that in a beautiful video, in which he climbs a mountain with his blind cat, Stevie, at his side.

To ensure Stevie’s safety, Carl has had to train her to walk on a leash (皮带) when she goes outside.

“It took a lot of patience to do this thing,” Carl told The Huffington Post. He said walking on the leash is now “the norm” for her — “she makes it look so easy.”

“I think Stevie is a very good cat and I wanted to capture (用镜头捕捉) how I truly felt about her and share that with the world in a meaningful way,” Carl said.

Carl got Stevie from Cork’s Animal Care Society about three years ago, after seeing an ad on social media saying that Stevie needed a home with a patient owner who could give her special care. In an earlier video about Stevie, Carl says that he has to make sure he keeps everything in his house in the exact same place so as to not confuse the blind cat.

Carl explained that he was never really a cat person, but Stevie has changed him.

“That’s not to say I didn’t like cats,” he said. “It’s just that up until I met Stevie, cats didn’t really take up any of my time. But now, it’s safe to say, I’ve been changed.”

He added that Stevie is just one of many animals that have been rescued from shelters or on the streets. “She wouldn’t be here today if it hadn’t been for the unbelievable hard work of the Animal Care Society in Cork,” he said.
