Size Doesn't Matter

I walk past these two cats every day but never really payed attention to them. I've never been a cat lover but they are in fact very fascinating. I began observing them outside of my house and as soon as they see me the walk right over they slowly walk towards me and jus give me that look that I jus know says pet me please.








I pet them for a while and began to write my observations but the problem was I couldn't ! They would rub against me and do this weird thing like tap me on the shoulder. I felt pretty awkward when they rubbed against me and had me questioning why. I Also got the chills when the female cat in which I name sprinkles stood up and tapped me on the shoulder. This had me questioning, so I began to research this and I found out that when a cat rubs itself against you, it's claiming you as their territory  and meaning your now family to them. How could this be I rarely pet this animal and it's not even mine !
Another thing that's pretty crazy was as I was about to leave and I see the other cat which is a male I named neymar who's pretty chubby and lazy ,run and jump the fence as if it was like stepping over a puddle .It  was so easy for him ! Do they have special muscles that give them this ability ? Do they ever fall ? Those are questions that I will answer in my next blog .

  1. I've always been amazed by how agile cats are. I know that if you declaw them, you sereiously limit their ability to climb.
