My CH kitty Creamsicle; *Update*; 8/4; She fell.

[cassiesmom]

Hi, Cgirl, pretty girl! Maybe it was Catmandu's Angel Cats that helped you up on the counter so your meowmie would have a story today to give us all a smile!

[Medusa]

I'm still having work done in the house and my construction guy said as I walked in the door from running errands "All your cats have been good, even the wild one". (He was talking about Creamsicle. I can't imagine why he'd call her that, my little counter top hopper. ) This just goes to show ya that CH babies are NOT hopeless cases. Nothing stops this little girl. If someone had told me when I first rescued her, as bad as her CH was then, that she'd be called the wild one of the bunch, I'd have said they were crazy. She loves Rich, my construction guy. She follows him around while he's working. He was building a shelf in my kitchen and she got up on the chair and kept head butting the back of his leg until he stopped what he was doing and petted her. Rich said "This cat doesn't get enough attention". I said "Oh please, she's got you conned, that's all". Her little head whipped around as if to say "Hey, I heard that!"

Creamsicle, you must be sooo proud!

Creamsicle, you did it! That is such wonderful newsand I'm sure all of your PT fans are smiling and high-fiving over your accomplishment! Please be sure to ask Meowmie to give you all the scritchies and lovies I'm sending just for you, okay sweetie?

She did it again yesterday and I ran for the camera but, of course, as soon as I turned in her direction, she jumped to the chair and then to the floor, the little brat.

[phesina]

Wow, Creamsicle! You are an Olympic-caliber athlete!

[Laura's Babies]

I am laughing my butt off! She did it again and got away with NO photo proof?

PLUS has the worker convinced she is not getting enough attention? Haven't I warned you how smart these babies are? They use their brains a lot more than other kitties and are a whiz at figuring things out! Even how to fool somebody... Little Miss Amy acts helpless if I am looking at her but let me turn my head and she can do what she wants without ANY help!

Oh, she's smart alright! The very fact that he refers to her as "the wild one" oughta tell ya somethin'. LOL Of course, he's here while I'm at my computer all day. He doesn't see that as soon as I sit down on the sofa to watch the news, etc. that she's on my lap and DOES. NOT. MOVE. Not getting enough attention. Puh-leeze.

[kimlovescats]

I would be just like you ... just tickeld with her accomplishment!

[Medusa]

She fell. Hard. She was so proud of herself about getting up on the table and when she's excited or stressed she walks in circles. I had a worker here giving me an estimate and she was showing off for him, lost her footing and down she went. One of the kitchen chairs broke the fall but she still hit the floor really hard. Because she's a CH girl, she doesn't land on her feet. She hit her side and panicked, ran downstairs away from me. I went after her and the worker said "She's ok. She's a cat". I said "You don't understand. She doesn't land on her feet" and I explained CH to him. He said "I didn't realize that". I had told him previously but he obviously didn't remember. She seems to be ok now; she's on the back of the sofa cleaning herself. I checked her over and she didn't cry but she kinda whimpered so I'm going to be watching her closely. I'm hoping that this will keep her off the table and countertop now. I surely don't want this to happen again, especially when I'm not at home. Poor little girl.

[Laura's Babies]

OH NO! Poor baby! That was my biggest fear for Amy, that she would take a hard fall and really hurt herself. She dosen't get on anything higher than the sofa anymore (I think her fear of falling is worse than mine). I don't even have my bed on a bed frame anymore, just the box springs and matress on the floor... for HER... But sometimes when she goes to get down off of that, she lands wrong and it scares me to death... she lands with a big "THUMP!"...

[katladyd]

Poor baby! I hope she is okay now. Give Creamsicle a kiss from me and tell her to stay off of high places from now on.

[Pinot's Mom]

How's Creamsicle doing? Any ill effects from the fall? Poor girl!

Thank you for asking about my Cgirl. There seem to be no ill effects from the fall. I thought that she'd be intimidated by the table and countertop and wouldn't jump up there any more. I was wrong.

Elmer and Bob are so glad to learn that Creamsicle does not seem to have suffered any aftereffects from her fall. They send their love to their fellow CHer.
