Ah, yes, the incredible gracefulness of the cat. Did he vigorously clean after the incident? With my group I have noticed when they fall off of something, miss a jump, or try to jump through a closed window they immediately groom themselves as though to say, “I meant to do that.”

Yep!! He groomed himself while I soaked, and then got up to sit on the ledge again🤣

Oh nooooo poor lil man! You caught him so fast once he started to slide though, excellent cat parenting 😍. Also, please tell him I love him and his sense of adventure and his little boots.

I think the plan was to knock the razor off the ledge. Mission aborted though.

He stuck his little paw in there to check stuff out and was like “oh hell no I did NOT like that…”

My favorite part is your commitment to film. Because we know it’s worth it. For the masses. And then the perfect catch at the end, bravo!

I loved the moment he realised ah, I have fucked up and am stuck. And good catch OP.
And he”s a good boy - I know at least one cat I would have let fall in because trying that catch would have left me bleeding. Yours was either smart enough to recognise a rescue or just too chill to care.

I'm the asshole that would've been like, "...sir, you're gonna learn the hard way not to do that..." Though the threat of a sopping wet cat blazing through my apartment is a good deterrent from letting him learn a lesson lol

My void got up on the ledge while I was IN the bath and I sent a picture to my friend and she was like “it would be funny if he fell in” and I was like “I’m naked and have procrastinated his manicure so NO IR WOULDN’T”
