My kitty, Harry climbs tall red brick walls, alarmed, I could not believe my eye balls; while I trim roses climbing, up, up with perfect timing, in the garden- he leaps and never falls !

Congrats, Constance. Our next-door neighbors' cat has one of her hind legs missing, yet can climb fences with the best of them! (Before I learned her name, I called her Tripod.)

Jim, thanks for the congrats, yes, I have seen dogs and cats with a missing leg for whatever reason doing just fine

I love to watch our cats adventures! They each have such distinct personalities! We have 3 right now and the pecking order is being debated with claws and(dare i say?)balls! 2 males one female. This was a breath of fresh, innocent, air! Some Limericks stretch over the boundaries of propriety. But they're funny, i can't deny! Xoxo

Crystol, yes, each cat is different, I have been blessed to have many in my life, and loved each one, my present kitty, Bella, has the same habit of climbing the brick walls, I have to watch her because I am on the third floor

Linda, thanks for the comment, Harry (RIP) was a wonderful cat, and though his adventures were dangerous he lived to be an old man, and made me laugh every day, Constance

Nice write. I had a cat years ago that bore a strong resemblance to yours.

Robert, thank you for the comment, I have had cats in all colors and patterns, but have always liked orange cats, they have a certain personality. My present cat is a British Short Hair, with tabby markings and she has tried some brick climbing too, but I stop her as we are on the third floor of an apartment building, she almost gave me heart failure before I could grab her, Constance
