Marmalade being a nice wee well behaved house cat.
Marmalade being a nice wild don’t -even-think-about-calling-me-down tree cat at the top of a very tall maple. I am not good at judging heights but it is higher than the house. She likes to be high.
This high.
miss c “You get down from there this minute Marmalade or there’ll be trouble.”
Marmalade “Mo! ”
miss c ” Did you just meow Mo to me?
Marmalade” Tess, I mean – Mo!”
miss c “Mo? Does that mean No?”
Marmalade ” It is not mice to make fun of my meow. (pause, as she creeps out a little further – peering down from her tiny high branch) Is it dimmer time?”
Miss c ” Yes, NarniaLade it is dinner time. DINNER! Darlings! Quick Marmie before the dogs get it!”
Needless to say she is just as fast coming down as she is going UP! I hope you all have a lovely day.
Your friend on the farmy,
miss c

She’s been a climber all of her days. What an explorer!
My former sister-in-law had a cat that climbed the carpeted wall and would cling up at the ceiling then when you least expected it she’d jump off and land on you, usually your head and you’d get scratches as she’d grab so she didn’t fall off to the floor. They finally took the carpeting off that wall.
That was so funny. I’m going to be laughing.
PS One of your pictures reminds me of the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland.
I don’t know why people think they have to rescue cats that go high. A vet told me once, “If they can get up there, they can get down.”
Ha ha ha!! I love the dialogue. Marmalade is clever… as are you miss C. Have a splendid day, sweet friend!
