Wish I could give a second upvote for the Futurama segment on the television.
For all Miez knows, many or most human homes come standard equipped with cat walls :P
Her different meows sound so different, which is expected but still neat to me. The "Hey, what's up?" meow at the end of the 3rd video sounds so different from the "I don't understand what to do next, please help" meows in videos 4 and 5.
I like it when she climbs the pole and halfway up uses it to scratch her head. It's neat seeing her cognitively process and learn the environment.
I think from a human perspective cats are really blind; they can see movement better than we can (for hunting), but they can't look across a room and identify things like we can and do. I thought of this when you were helping Miez navigate the parallel bars (monkey bars) with tapping and maybe touching the next bar. Then, after she jumped across one, I think she recognized the structure as one she had encountered before, as she made the second jump and the next jump quite quickly.
Has she mastered the jump from the wooden platform to the monkey bars (or vice versa)? That seems like it might be the most challenging manoeuvre at the moment due the platform being kind of shallow from the wall and maybe not much friction on the wood
She knew those jumps already, she was just being lazy. Here's a vid from a few weeks ago:
Actually I first had a longer board about half the depth installed and she used to jump up and down from there to the middle post:
I feel like those wall supports on the pole are prime for some kind of cat shelf. Complete with plants and vases and stuff to knock off.
(too bad it'd probably get in the way of using the pole.)
I was actually considering this, but only at the very top of the first post as an easy access to a then attached round hammock. Your comment in brackets is exactly the reason why I didn't do it. I now attached the hammock to the board on the other side
Oh, I'm sure there's other places to put things that can be knocked down for Miez's amusement.
The shelf run looks nice! (and Meiz is stunning.)
She's actually not one of those cats. She even tries to jump down with some toys in her mouth instead of just knocking them down.
Thanks, they're actually not finished yet. I wanna round the edges and oil them. I love the red color of the beech that comes out then. (and I'll cuddle her from you)
It's always nice when the cats are polite like that!
