This is exactly what one of my cats does. Can't tell you how many times I've started to scold her for getting on the counter and then had to apologize when it turns out she's only getting to her perch.
Aha, a use for those things. Finally.My silly cat Louie...
Has all these toys...
What's his favorite ?
The pink toe separator thingys that came in the polish boxes we bought for flavors.
He tosses them around like a madman.
Carries them to us to play fetch.
I like a decent throat hit. I always have. However if a recipe tastes really good then I can usually overlook a weak TH.
I'm considering a catio at some point. I need to have some home repairs done first, but maybe next year? I haven't leash trained him. Tried a collar. He takes it off!
@Iron Molly – You got a new KITYY?Pictures, pictures, PICTURES!!! Can’t have enough cat pics
Some cats are ground dwellers, some like to be perched up high so they may look down on us mere mortals. Once Zelda developed the dexterity, she turned into a climber. And I catered to her needs. I didn’t go over board, mostly provided ways for her to reach top shelves of closets to she could perch up high and just chill looking down on her new kingdom. As she aged her climbing diminished and I regained some of my upper storage. But she still has a few high places to chill.
Sounds like Enrique is just a furry ball of energy. Hopefully you and or your household has equal amount of energy cause you gotta tire that little terror out. Lots of play time! Has he been neutered?

He's been neutered. He was adopted from Animal Control once, kept for 4 months, then returned. So his adoption fee for me was a whole $5.
They said he's not good with children. Poor thing probably was tormented. So I'm hoping in time he will trust and get more relaxed. He's already made pretty good progress. He is very brave when I'm home, but spends all his time under the bed when I'm not here. I think he may have been taken from his mother too soon. Someone certainly carried him around a lot, because that's what he likes. He would ride in my hood if he fit. He's scared of loud noises, fast movement, and various odd things in the house. Not looking forward to our first vet visit. I'm holding off since he's had his shots. Want to give him a chance to settle in before I traumatize him with a vet visit.
I love the time change and getting more sun later in the day! I hope they make it permanent!
My to-do list was much more enthusiastic than my back. I filled up five yard garbage bags and there are more sticks and limbs. I just put them against a tree for now. Townhome with an HOA appeals to me more and more the older I get. I’m seriously thinking of having all my trees cut down. One small tree died...good riddance. I think I can at least cut grass now without damaging my blades. Break first.
I am really enjoying this pb (black honey) tobacco juice. I vaped an entire tank and half of another one. Scratching an itch.

I doubt they will but I hope so too.

Hopefully he wasn’t abused. He sounds adorable. I think he just needs some time to adjust and get to know you and his new surroundings. And making progress is a good sign he is becoming more comfortable. 2 stints in the shelter must be stressful on a cat. Wish you and Enrique all the best. Love hearing about pets being saved from the shelter so this made my day.

My trees have gotten really big with time. I have an autumn blaze maple and a Chanticleer pear in the front that have gotten bigger than I had ever hoped. I cut a lot off the pear last year on the side closest to the house. I really need to hire someone to come and trim and top both of them. We have an Indian crabapple and some other kind of crabapple tree in the back that are low growing and easier to keep trimmed. The pear tree in the front wasn’t supposed to grow as wide as it did. If I had known, I would have planted it further away. It had about a 400lb root ball on it when I planted it. It took me and two neighbors to move it.
I’m so curious about the last H.Prime/Chocolate recipe I mixed but I won’t cheat.
I had 17 trees cut when I bought this house. I have four oaks, one hickory (don’t get me started), one dead wild dogwood, and two viburnums in front that are overtaking my house. The viburnums and dead tree I’m having cut down very soon. I cut down and derooted 17 box woods the last two years along with 12 juniper (never again). My plan is to get some new plants for out front. After 18 years everything gets too big. I want low maintenance as much as possible. I can’t keep doing all this. I’m el cheapo or I’d hire the maintenance out but I’m not rich for sure. I have so much to do. Still cutting grass (weeds)...guess I better get back out there.
How about walking a cat on a leash that is as big as a hippo in a thong?
Zelda says, “that’s my cousin, mess with me you mess with that big fella”
Beautiful animal.
