Crouching Kitten, Flying Tyger

Fitz the kitten has taken to leaping high in the air and flipping so that he's complete horizontal when, say, he tumbles into a seated guest's arm. Or when he crashes into the side of my bed. Or when misses the couch back and hits the window behind it.

It's better than his first week, when he thought our legs were tree trunks for climbing. Still it's startling to see a fur-bomb fly by at waist-height and crash into something halfway across the room. We're hoping that he'll gain weight and have to give up that particular trick.

Comments:
Tyger? Did He who made the Lamb make Fitz?
 
Without him was not any thing made that was made.

Fitz is now displaying his fearful symmetry by rolling on his back and trying to pick a fight with my right foot.
 
that used to be lucy's favorite poem as a toddler together with the owl and the pussycat. maybe her eclectic tastes led to vegetarianism??
