Wall Climbing Cat

Donny has calmed down a bit. He seems to zoom the most when he's trying to get us to feed him early. He is finally learning the meaning of No and Get Down.

Glad the little guy is settling down. Their kitten antics are very cute, but quite exhausting sometimes, and to be sure, maturity will take care of at least some of it.

Sorry he won't be getting access to the outdoors. I know there's a growing body of opinion that it's not safe, but since my experience, both with my own cats and those of friends, suggests otherwise, I can't deny them the experience that they clearly want. However, I'm not here to get on a soapbox, so I'll have to agree to disagree.

Enjoy your little guy.

Donny has a halter and leash and my son will take him outside to roam with that.
I'll let him out in the backyard when I can supervise him. I don't want him eating all the birds that come to my feeders. So he gets some outdoors without getting into trouble. Usually he's so terrified he's ready to come back in.

Today I found him a jingle ball inside a much bigger ball. This wey he chases it and I don't have to fish it out from under neath the furniture. He tried his hardest to get the jingle ball out. But all he can do is stick is paw in through the various holes and bat it around.

Well, not all cats want to go out. We had one who would go out in good weather for a munch of grass, particularly if one or more of the humans was there too, but for the most part he could take it or leave it. Sounds like your Donny might agree with him

That ball toy sounds like a winner.

Is he still auditioning for the next spiderman movie?

Yes, but the episodes are getting fewer. Now he looks at us before he does his routine. And usually we can talk him out of it or distract him.

That's good then... Did you get any pictures of him doing it?

No, but I need to. He had a particulary active time this morning. When I just wanted to get some sleep, he wanted to climb the walls.
I'll try for a pic soon.

If I've done everything right, here is a picture of our little mischief maker.

He looks like he's thinking...
Hmmm.... what can i get my paws into next?

He's been trying to figure out how the scanner works (he's reclining on it). Whenever I use the scanner or the printer he will come running across the house to see what's going on. Sometimes he will pull the paper out of the printer. We have to get to it before his teeth do.

You certainly did it right! He's gorgeous, and full of p&v, I can tell! Not to mention that he reminds me VERY seriously of The Bestest Tyger in the Whole Wide World, AKA Gryphon, over the Rainbow Bridge 4 years ago last March, and still choking me up when I spend more than 3 nanoseconds thinking of him -- SIGH!

Thanks for the pic -- he's a lovely boy.

He is a pretty boy. Even our vet, who is not an avowed cat person, called him a beautiful cat and was very taken with him.
I'll admit Donny has his moments.

Your lovely boy seems from all you have said to have personality to burn. He shows all the signs of growing up to be, as the "first human" of Gryph called him, a "GRRRRRRRReatt Catt". We didn't experience Gryph's kittenhood -- he and his brother came to us when they were six years old, and their human developed allergies she couldn't get under control. She didn't want to let them go -- her loss was our gain. I can just see him with exactly the same look on his lovely face.

Enjoy your sweet monster -- and give him a scritch for me.

Oh I will. He's just coming in from a late night snack (he seems to prefer several little meals during the day) to see how I'm doing. I'll give him an extra scratch and cuddle.

My cat is so annoying she mostly climbs the door frames, Why does she have this weird habbit? We tell her stop climbing the walls your not spiderman
