Does anyone's cat like to fly?

Oliver and my husband Steve should start a comic book called Flying
Kitty. Every night Steve takes Oliver "flying" thru the apartment.
Oliver will run up to him and lift his front legs off the floor,
stretching as far up as he can go. Steve grabs Oliver just under his
front and back legs and lifts him into the air, over his head, which is
pretty high since Steve is 6'3". They then commence to "fly" around the
apartment, Oliver held aloft. They stop at all the vents in the ceiling
for a sniff, look on top of book cases, pat pictures Oliver can't
normally reach. They then reach the master bedroom where Oliver
inspects the top of the door frames and then move on to a boxing match
with the ceiling fan. Finally there is a call to the control tower for
permission to land and "Kitty One" makes a soft touch down on the bed.
Oliver loves it. He looks pretty funny, his body stretched way out and
almost 7 feet in the air. Totally relaxed and happy!

That is so cute. Stinky doen't like that so much as he likes to
be walked around, slung over my shoulder, and looking back over it.

That sounds like a pretty good kitty-game. Oliver is lucky to have
such an inventive human companion.

Not exactly the same, but Amelia enjoys doing "high hunting". When she
sees a moth on the ceiling, she asks me to pick her up and hold her high
while she hunts the moth.

And she's named for Amelia Earhardt. When we first got her, the first
thing we noticed about her is that she loved to leap from high place to
high place. Nancy named her the Flying Kitty.
