Good to hear Leaping Larry's in town now. Maybe it's a confidence thing - Freyja's a couple of weeks younger than your babes and in the first month she was with us she seemed to get to have to psych herself up for a jump and then completely misjudge it and fall off/ not make it. I started to get a bit worried and decided I'd mention it to the vet if it was still a problem when she went back for her next weigh in, but she's got much more confident and her judgement is now pretty good. A bit like Larry, she also used to ask if she could get up on my lap or the sofa and I'd have to give her the nod first - now she just hops up without giving a second thought and barges whatever I'm doing out of the way!
