OMG! They've Discovered Verticality!!!

Up until now their depredations have been confined to ground level.
However, Ozzy and Archer have discovered that their world has verticality
(especially when they can find something within their jumping range that
leads to something higher). No object is safe on a shelf, no book is left
unchewed, the law of gravity has been proven again, and again, and again
(they do like to confirm their results)!!!

No matter how many time you get to watch a kitten discover this in their
life, its always new and amazing and totally delightful. Even if the books
were nicer unchewed,

Oh yeah. We're seeing that too. They're learning new stuff every day.
Unka Frank has
taught them the fine art of trash-digging even. (Most of you already
know, trash-diggers are
not born. It's a learned art).

Just once I wish I could witness this. Perhaps in the distant future when
Persia is no longer with me (sob! I don't let myself think about that). I
would also hope not when I had a bird cage for an inquisitive kitten to
discover verticality on! LOL And since lovebirds live, on average, 22.5
years and Peaches will be 4 in November, chances are I won't witness this
kitten verticality phenomenon myself.

oh yeah, i remember when Nick made it to the top of the cat tree for
the first time and then when he discovered he was so HIGH he started
crying. Awwwwwwww!!!

Then there was the time he discovered he could jump onto the bed.
Errr, well jump and CLING to the mattress and then CLAW his way up
onto the bed. hehehehehehe

Have fun! I hope you've secrued things on the shelves

Talking of clawing their way up, Snoopy does that now she's getting older.
She used to jump from the floor to my lap in such a way that she was just
there, now she jumps half way, sticks her claws in my thigh and drags
herself the rest of the way. My thighs now look like I've been running
through rose bushes. Still, so long as she's happy that's all that matters.

That's what Weeb's used to do - and the sofa, us, drapes...

I remember one time I trimmed his front claws for the first time. He was at
the jump-as-high-as-I-can-and-scramble-to-the-top stage, and he wanted on
the sofa - unfortunately, what he dug his claws into was *not* the edge of
the sofa, but DH's legs. Ouch! (shoulda heard him holler)

So I trimmed his front claws (Weeb's, not DH's). About 5 minutes later, he
tried it again. The look on his littel face when he landed back on the
floor with a "plop" was priceless!

Don't worry, Persia -Weeb's didn't get laughed at! He got picked up and
cuddled until he squirmed to get loose! Then he promptly learned to jump
all the way to the top of the bed and sofa. A mighty leap for such a little
tyke!

Now he's a furry handsome and sleek black kitty that can make tremendous
leaps with little or no effort!

He's such a sweet boy and loved very much!
