Can A Cat Over Explore?

HIYA!!  SAVANNAH HERE!!!

If you the question “can a cat over explore?” at my home, the answer will be  resounding ‘YES!’. Especially after Mom L caught The Kid Sage exploring all within her leap reach from the tippy top of our White Tower.

TKS was caught in the very act…bad lighting…but caught none the less.

 

What's the problem?

What’s the problem?

When TKS first discovered she could almost reach a paw from the tippy top of the White Tower over to Mom L’s ‘Special Treasures Display Shelf’ the humans had second thoughts about where the tower was placed.

However, they waited just a tad too long.

Great view up here!

Great view up here!

By the time they found her they were afraid to startle her for fear she would take the treasured Native American Drum down with her…

This looks pretty doable I think...

This looks pretty doable I think…

And then she began her descent…

Great! Easy reach...no problem

Great! Easy reach…no problem

Interestingly, the tom tom (drumming stick) which lays on the shelf was discovered…the next morning…on the living room floor. I suspect The Kid Sage made another trip up in the cloak of darkness later that night.

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH

    Sweet TKS that is some mighty fine high-rise exploring. Seems you might be practicing for some re-arranging of pretty things. Hugs and nose kisses

    • She most certainly does. I, on the other paw, am far more dignified like my pal Archie (Mom L is very sad she won’t see you next week; please know this. Good thing I cancelled as have a bad hamstring pull behind the new knee. Hard to even walk right now 😦

    Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

  19. Overexploring is fun!! For us, that is! Mum and dad yell at us when *we* get too excited! Bo and Kobi

  20. and I can hear the drumroll of your tom tom while tks touched the next destination with her paw…and I stopped my breath…. that’s so egg-siding :o)

  21. Ut Oh….maybe move that tower over just a tad? Obviously TKS is preparing for a job with the circus as a high wire artist!!!!

    Hugs, Sammy

    • She has no problem leaping from top of Dad’s chest of drawers over to the very top shelf in the wall closet…about 4 feet at least. That tower will have a new home if she doesn’t get her appetite for the shelf taken care of

  22. Lucky kitty! It is my dream to be able to climb and leap like that. There would be no limit to the counters I would surf and the garbage I would eat.

    Love and licks,

  25. Well done Sage 😀

  26. Effurrytime We discover one of Mummy’s Treasures, She hides it away! She claims She can either have Pretty Inanimate Objects – OR Furry Babies. And it wasn’t hard to choose (mol).

  27. that is why I have nothing nice … Well, but my cats, of course!

  28. Over- exploring is a real problem. If you don’t talk to your kittens about over-exploring, who will???
    MOL!

Waving paw...HI!...what'd 'cha think...??
