I never thought 22 inches would be the sitting height of a domestic cat, amazing.

Truth is though........Some are just better at jumping than others

This is silver at 20 weeks

Silver is very long but also heavy (9lbs ) so he cant jump up as far as nero who is smaller .

At 19 weeks Nero could jump onto the worktops
My older MC floyd however is something of a jumper specialist. He was on the worktops at 13-14 weeks . He weighs 8kg ish but can get up almost anything including doors

Its not a good picture but he is sitting on a four inch ledge and the only way is straight up !

Astounding how high these creatures can jump.
