Salem's got a look on her face like she's thinking, "HAHA! You can't get me up here, can you, you little pest!"

priceless!

It seems similar to last night when I found Harley hiding asleep in a box in the bedroom closet, I peeked at him and he gave me a look that said "If you reveal my whereabouts to Jack I will make your life heck and you will never sleep again"

I've received that "look" on more than one occasion!

You're giving me ideas now.
Maybe we should start a new thread.

I wasn't there to witness her athletics, but I think she jumped onto the desk that's next to the cabinet, then the top of the TV that's on the desk, then up onto the cabinet itself. She's got some mighty powerful hind legs.
I have a pic & video of her jumping on top of my dresser, which has a shelf on it which also extends to the top of the ceiling. I guess her ability to jump so high comes from her days of being outside before I rescued her, when she had to escape from the "enemies".

It looks really hard to get up there because the space between the top of the cabinet and the ceiling is rather narrow.

I like the doors on your cabinet, btw.

I know what you mean. I was pretty surprised too, when I saw her up there!


She's a very determined cat. When she want's something, nothing stops her.

Thanks!
I like them, too. It was one of the things that I liked most about the place when we came to look at it.
There are matching ones in the kitchen & living room, too.

Here Salem is on top of the shelf that's above the fridge. She definitely likes high places.






This is her on top of the shelf that's above the dresser I was previously talking about. What amazes me about her jumping up there is that the top of that shelf does not have a flat surface: it's a completely open space up there.
It's amazing to me that she managed to jump up there at all, but without losing her balance and falling through that space is a real feat!






Those last two pix turned out blurry for some reason.

Is that the slinky one I liked the other day?
I think it is!
I think the slinky one you're thinking of is actually Jinxy - one of Salem's babies. Which pic was it? I don't recall - I post so many now!

Was this the slinky black cat you were referring to?

Yeah I think it was Jinxy. It was one of all the babies together and the slinky one was down by herself!
