He can still gets to the top of the fridge. And jump back down on the stool when he feels like it. I love the way a cat can stick a landing. I think he’s about 10 years old, he was only half grown when he took up residence on my back step. I had to take him in eventually and get veterinary care, so he’s a house cat now

Tips the scales at 21 lbs. He knows his limits, doesn’t try to jump on top of the fridge, only goes on the counter if he can launch himself from the nearby sofa. He only gets 1 little can ofFancy Feast and 1/3 cup dry but he’s not losing any weight.

had an x-ray of my left elbow. I think I cracked it. Anyway, when I got home and sat down at the desk, my huge fluffy Norwegian jumped up and positioned himself right on top of the keyboard. Every time I tried to move to see the screen, he'd move a little "with" me. I know he wanted "treats"... he got about 1/3 of a can of catfood instead. He ate it right now, but he's still wanting his treats! (LOL)
