    Flopping over and crawling

    A quarter of the time, when I call my cat, he will run full speed until 3-4 feet away from me.  He then flops over onto his side and uses his front paws to pull himself the remaining few feet to me. Does anyone have an idea why he is army crawling on his side like this?  The rest of the time...

    Why does my cat reach out to me
