Floki's latest trick is climbing up the kitchen cabinets using the
drawer handles as a ladder. He doesn't get up on the countertops
thankfully, but he's worked out that he can see what I'm doing if he
stands on the lowest handle and grabs onto the top one with his front
paws. I think I'm going to have to persuade him out of the habit though,
as he's getting quite big now and I suspect the drawer handles won't
hold up in the long run.
He's really at least nine-tenths of a cat now, not a kitten any more.



He's obviously cleverly working things out and what he can do to get where
he wants. Still, you've got to love that last one tenth kitten.


It was a great relief for the humans when Mandy (RB) finally realized
she was too big to do kittenish things like climbing the drapes and (NOT
a favourite), leaping halfway up the back of a human, and then climbing
up to the shoulder so she could see what the human was doing. Or had
been doing, before the distraction of having a half-grown cat climb up
their back, claws and all.
