I once saw a documentary where a tiger jumped over an elephant to get at its rider. Narrowly missed. I nearly had a heart attack just watching it on TV. I can’t imagine how it was for the guy on the elephant.
…cats do not subscribe to any of newton’s laws…i’ve had cats that have jumped up over 5 feet vertically, apparently without using a single muscle…one second sitting on the floor, next second sitting on a shelf – still not sure if it was ultra-fast levitation, or actually teleportation…

Good flight, Hobbes!

It’s the tempo, Hobbes is fit. Just sleeping, he is suddenly completly awakened and jumps like best athlete and never had slept!

Beware of false impressions, Calvin. They’re everywhere.

Looks like Hobbes has been nipping the helium again. Look for him in next years Macy’s Christmas Parade.

All cats use gravity to their advantage, but sometimes they have to eat and use the litter box.

I like the ‘house tigers’ reference too. Like everyone has a tiger. Funny!

That grin could only be made more complete by the addition of a gleaming fang point.

What a delightfully evil grin on Hobbes’ face as he goes in for the kill. Absolutely LOVE it!!!!! ;-)
