Caturday Jump Odin Jump Video +

If you love cats, sharing makes us purrrr :-)

The week passed in a blur, not unlike the blur when Odin (seen above) pounces after prey. He caught a large chipmunk but we’re trying encourage “catch and release” style of hunting. He’s not too keen on it but it makes me and the other animals happier.

One of Odin’s favorite commands is “jump” when we play outdoors. He’ll jump from one log or chair to another but I couldn’t resist teasing him a bit during the rain. In this video he calculates whether to jump off the porch railing. It’s only about three feet high but it was raining. He loves the rain but hesitated. It’s only a minute, but if you’re impatient zoom to the end.
