My cat jumped up on the kitchen windowsill when the window was closed. I was surprised she able to keep her balance until I got her down, and she wasn’t a small cat!
I had a cat who could walk on a two-inch ledge outside the glass of the second floor balcony. He couldn’t figure out how to turn around in that little space, though. I would often see him inching backwards to return to the unglassed portion. He did it every day to check on the neighbor’s birdhouse which was barely beyond jumping distance. That’s agile.
One day I watched as he tried to do a vertical turnaround. It almost worked but he fell and caught himself by his front claws. He was able to pull himself back up onto the two-inch ledge – still facing the wrong way. :)

He has some mountain goat on his father’s side.

And he’s just waiting for Ned to walk by so he can leave his ‘mark’ on his head.

That must be how he got his name. Every time he missteps, there’s a BOOM.

However, Thunder would be incredibly insulted if you complimented his “cat-like” ability!

These balancing acts help tone his Thunder thighs.

Thunder often assumes unusual poses for his golden shower.

I think he’s about to be remarkably embarrassed on the vet’s table.

Thunder identifies as a cat.
Good evening, Ballard Dears!

That doesn’t look like any dog agility championship I’ve ever seen.
