Just now I was sitting in my rocking chair and my kitten rascal (who is 6 weeks old) was sitting in front of me and wanted to jump up onto the chair but could'nt quite make it, even standing up she can't reach she is so little, it was cute watching her try, everytime she tried to reach she flipped herself over. I finally helped her up part way and let her climb the rest herself so she could feel she did it herself.
