Within the past week, Zipper has turned into a late night acrobat. He had been keeping late hours watching for the mouse I could never catch in the live trap. I don't think the mouse is coming around anymore, but who knows. That mouse left a lasting impression on Zipper.

Anyway, within the last week, Zipper has taken to using me and DH as launching pads for his acrobatics. Last night, he jumped from the coffee table to me on the couch, and kind of bounced off me and jumped to the back of the couch. From there, he briefly sat by my head on my pillow. Then, he decided that he would walk across the end table, not knocking anything on it over, and walking all over my DH. (We were sleeping in the living room.)

At first, I thought Zipper was just asking to be fed. But, this occurs after he's been fed. If you watch him and his acrobatic antics, you can tell he's doing it on purpose and just for fun. Neither DH nor I mind it - I just roll over and go back to sleep. But, if Zipper really wants my attention, he'll walk on me, or sit on the coffee table and look at me, just chatting away.

Like Patrick says, you gotta love them! And, I love my sweet Zipper!

Zipper is just sooooo cute!!! He just loves his mommy & daddy so much that he likes to show off for you!

You should try to get some pictures of him in action! :-)

Its hard when you lose a beloved pet. They truly are like children. I just lost one cat Thursday. Most people don't understand your sad feelings or how deep they run. donna

Suzy - this activity of Zipper's takes place when we are sleeping - and in the dark. You don't think my silly boy would do this during the day so we could have photographic evidence of him being a cat brat! LOL

Actually, I am in severe pain today - my lower back is hurting like its never hurt before. Who do you think jumped on my belly as I was laying down this morning? ::eek:: I screamed like there was no tomorrow! (I am going to see my doc later today.) But, I still love my sweet Zipper - he's never a bad boy. :D
