Hi everyone! I have a 5 1/2 month old kitten who is pretty big already. He's 7lb. 13 oz. right now and has a slender long/tall body type and huge rabbit feet. But he still can't jump up on tables and counters. If I dangle a toy up high he can't jump up at it. He can do flying leaps and stuff but a straight vertical jump he can maybe get a foot off the ground and he's not graceful landing either. Is this normal or could there be something up with his legs? When do kittens get the jumping skills, cause I thought he'd be hopping up on the counter by now.
And its not that he has no interest in jumping up there. If I am standing next to the only counter he can't get on by climbing up other things, he will get really mad and cry like crazy to be lifted up there.
Here's a pic of him wanting to get on the fridge. He can't make this jump when it is clear. I cleared everything out of his way and he didn't do it.
