Please note, none of that, is the real depression glass. All, the real stuff, has been put away or broken. I have learned a lot from him, in the past two years
This photo, is to show, how high he can jump. Lastly, all the items, are Gorilla Glued down
. Yep, hybrid cats, teach us humans to be minimalists

So...did he make that leap all the way from the floor
?   I can see why you'd need to glue everything down


I think maybe you need a couple of real trees n your house to keep him occupied

Yes he did
. He can jump six feet, from a standing or seated start. To jump that high, he, ran from one room to another and just jumped up to that point. He can do 11 or so foot jump, with, a running start. Yes, I know, I have all the
.

Just another joy, of, hybrid cat ownership

That, might have been better, then, my idea. I recently purchased, a F2 Savannah for him. That, will be Loki's Christmas gift. My human kids, are thrilled. I just hope, that, the F2 Savannah, isn't my undoing

he sure is a handful huh? he needs to be in some long jump contests. he'd win a few.


i am not sure what we'd do if our cats could jump that far.
Sassy jumps pretty far. she actually LEAPS OVER baby gates. and Bella won't even TRY to jump over the gates.
Bella is a bit more LAZY.

Sassy does something so funny..once in a while.....she jumps up far enough to grab, with her front paws, the peep hole (5 ft) on the front door. there is also a black smudge mark (6 ft) on one of our walls that she jumps up to the same way. just to touch it. cracks us up! i bet she would jump higher if there was something she wanted to get.

Yes, hybrid cats, in general are a REAL handful. However, Loki, is only an F3 Savannah and he is way worse then my pure male African Serval, when he was alive. Yes, a almost three years old, my F3 Savannah, is way more work then my Serval ever was! Having owned Loki, I now see why, the breeder said "he is for someone who wants a small exotic". Maybe, my Serval was very well behaved. But, other then Loki not spraying like a Serval, he seems way more then 17% (theoretical twig value) Serval.

I am
, at that one for real
. Thank you, very much for the laugh. I can always use it

You would modify your house, like I did mine. I call my home, "early hybrid". AKA, baby proofed floor to "roof"

That is all the jumping, life, really needs

Sounds like, a really really good cat to me

That is so so funny and cute. That would be a great photo/video moment to capture

oh my goodness.....i don't know what i would do if i had such an energetic cat, as Loki is. if Sassy was that way, we would go nuts. we are in a small 2 bedroom apt right now..thank goodness..or we would have to cat proof it for sure. would be a pain in the ... you know what.
would not be so happy to do all that.

you are welcome for the laugh. i try my best to make ppl laugh. kind of a good deed thing for me.


yeah...it's nice to have a good cat..as Bella is.
just sucks that she is not very affectionate..but we know why. kind of a bummer.

 

i actually had a video of Sassy jumping to get the peep hole.
i will have to try and find it and share.
