Don’t try this at Thanksgiving!

butterball

Not only are we cats cool, but we are incredibly flexible creatures. That’s because we at one time had to be great hunters. Now I don’t have to hunt much these days, and I won’t share with you what I’m hunting for here, but those predatory skills are still in my genes.

Those Two think it’s hysterical when I assume this pose, and refer to it as “The Butterball,” like it’s some Olympic dive that deserves to be rated. Yeah, well let’s see you try it, you stiff-legged old ladies!

I can spring up to nine times my height, and yet how many mornings have I watched the two of you struggle to lower yourselves out of bed? Let’s see you try to jump onto the roof of the house to clean the gutters!

So go ahead, laugh. I bet you’re a bit envious.

  1. I’m always amazed at the incredible flexibility of our 4 legged furry friends, from cats,dogs,chipmunks and our aerial aces, the squirrels.
