Well Grover is doing something new, she was sitting at my computer and heard a noise in the ceiling. (a mouse perhaps?) Anyway, she looked up at the ceiling where the sound came from, and jumps up and climbs the ceiling, and hangs there for awhile. Grover has come a long way from that old trashcan she started out in. Here are some pictures of Grover hanging on the side of wall close to the ceiling.

Allen and Pouncer would give their right paw to have a wall to climb like that! Lucky cat! Such a sweetie too.

PS: How much fun is it to paint in between those boards?

Now that's what I call literally climbing the walls.
What great pictures.
It's so good to see how big she is getting. Grover has turned into a real beauty. You've come a long way baby.

Yes, Grover has come a long way from being used as a football, then dropped in a trashcan and left for dead. She doesn't look like the same cat. She has gone into a hunting mode, I think we have a mouse in our ceiling and she hears it up there chewing, I wish she would hurry up and get it. lol. Oh I hate our walls, that was my husbands idea, it was okay for awhile, but its getting old to me. I would like to have normal walls, LOL. My husband really loves things that look old. They sure are great for Grover though, because she hung there for a long time, before she finally fell off behind my desk, and my grandson was trying to see what happened to her after she fell off. LOL. She finally come crawling out from under my desk, after she regained her composure, and embarrassment of falling off the wall.
I am very proud of the way she has grown and become the boss of the house.LOL.:) ;)

Awww, what a silly cutey pie! I am almost afraid to ask, but she was used as a football and dumped? Oh my God! Did the people who did it get caught and tortured before being killed by a swarm of angry bees?

No angry bees, but I told my daughter I was taking Grover over there and let her scratch out their eyes, or let them pay for feeding her and all her future vet bills, LOL, I haven't got to do that yet. Grover I think could handle them now, she is not that helpless little kitty anymore.
Jen you wall would be full, wouldn't they? But that is an idea, I don't remember who mentioned it, to fit more cats in.
Grover never did get what she was going after, she finally fell off behind my desk. She is always doing something funny to make me laugh. She is indeed a little nut. I just couldn't resist sharing the pictures with everybody her on pet talk, I figured you would all get a kick out of her doing the wall climbing thing. She keeps a pretty close watch on the computer, she has a special chair that she sits in while I am on the computer, and when she is not in the chair she is standing in front of the monitor, or trying to play with something that is moving on the monitor screen.:)

Gives a whole new meaning to climbing te walls.:)

Grover is one athletic cat. I am really glad that mine aren't that athletic.:eek:

I know what you mean Bryan, she is "climbing the walls" LOL, I really don't mind her being so athletic though, considering how she started out, I am happy to see her do anything that is active.
catmandu, and everybody on here thanks for remembering what my little Grover went through, I really don't know what I would be doing if she hadn't come into my life. She has really gave me a lot of joy. Thanks EVERYBODY for being so nice to Grover and me.:)

Wow, that is impressive. She really has come a long way. Nice to know she is so happy and loved after her rough start.

I think I would panic if I saw one of mine climbing that high. Glad I don't have the right kind of walls for climbing.

Pam, she found what she was looking for tonight finally. She captured a mouse. She is now looking for another one.

You know, she climbed back up there and hung next to the picture to get it, I can't believe she got it. Fast!!:)

She got it, but she wants more. She keeps sitting on top of my desk looking for another one.

What adorable pics! WOW, can my kitties come and play on your walls? HOW COOL THEY ARE!!!! Built-in scratching posts / cat trees!!! :eek: :D

trayi52
12-02-2003, 01:53 PM
Yeah, pretty good "Cat House" all the luxuries a kitty cat could ask for, built in scratching post, built in mousies, and built in cat tree Grover gets to climb constantly.

kimlovescats, you live in Middle TN, and so do I. Sounds like our kittys could get together and climb the walls.:D ;)

amoore, Grover had to show her mouse off to Stubby, the black bobtail kitty, he said he had seen bigger mice. lol.:D

amoore
12-02-2003, 02:38 PM
Stubby must be like some human men we know.:rolleyes: hee,hee,hee!
Grover,your mommy is very proud of you:)

Tray this a picture of sunny. Sorry, It is not a very good one .
