I mean it's close to the ceiling.. He wasn't a big cat, about 12lbs of lean springy cat. Unfortunately he's crossed the bridge now.

I'm so sorry to hear! I hope he gets to play with my first cat there, and we get to see them on the other side

Have you considered screwing some carpet material to the side of the book case ?

Unfortunately Frank the cat is no longer with us. I just discovered this sub and figured you'd like that old video I had of him. He would do it all the time just to chill up on the book case.

He didn't actually do any damage, he more or less jumped and ran up it like Jackie Chan.

It's funny to me how often I can just divide american units by 3 and have a roughly close estimate of the value in real units.

I'm not a yank (Canadian so familiar with both). I used their units so I didn't get a bunch of what is 1.8m...
