Tumbles decided to practice his tightrope walking skills the other night by jumping on top of my computer monitor. I thought my husband was going to lose it! I just laughed.



Then this morning, he was lounging on the bathroom counter, which is an acceptable place to be.



Can you believe he's almost 6 mos old and weighs 8.2 pounds???

Aww, I laughed before I even saw the photos, just reading the title, and I just had a feeling it was Tumbles.
'That little Tumbles, what's he up to now?'

I can't believe how fast he's grown!! He is too cute! I always love seeing The New Adventures of Mr. Tumbleweed!

I had one of those jumper/leapers, Oliver (Ollie), a black DSH who was part monkey. He would jump to the top of doors and lie up there, one front and back paw on each side of the door. He also would jump to the top of 8.5' book cases all the time. I'd tell him it was his job to dust up there.

He would jump to the top of the refrigerator and open the cupboards up there. Actually he would open any and all cupboards and drawers and take stuff out. I still have child proof fasteners on my kitchen cupboards because of him, 3.5 years after he's gone (lymphoma).

Also, he would play fetch, like a dog. I never taught him this. He taught me.

Your cat is really beautiful. That age he is now is when they really can get into a lot of trouble. They are still so kitten rambunctious, and they now have the size and weight to do some real damage if they get rowdy.

So, good luck and have fun!

Wow, that boy is so full of character!
Our foster cat, Surprise, is quite the tight rope walker.
She has a tendency to get up on our head board on the bed at night. The thing is, she isn't always the most graceful cat and ends up falling on our heads!
