Kliban's Cats by B. Kliban for July 21, 2022

What?

Is he going to lower himself with kitty silk!? (Never knew that they could do that either, huh!?)

Qats defy gravity.

Well, in proportionate effect, wouldn’t you, being used to an average-size roast turkey be startled to be served Thanksgiving roast ostrich?

Parody to “Dancing on the Ceiling,” Rodgers and Hart, 1930:

.

“My cat cowers overhead

On the ceiling, filled with dread

And extreme disturb

At the giant bird.

Sparrows are just all she’s sought,

Nothing bigger has she caught —

So there’s my kitty-love

Up there above …”

Spider Cat

Hang on Kitty Kat, dinner is here…an upside down chicken…meow meow meow!

Just trying to entice down an overexcited cat. Kittens especially enjoy defying gravity for brief periods of time. If you have ever seen one corner in a room by running on the wall, you’ll know what I mean.

spider cat, spider cat!

Holy Fred Astaire!!

Good thing she has claws.

“The Ceiling is a floor too, if you believe in yourself!”

- Lupin

As they used to say in the late 50s at NASA, “what goes up must come down.”

Is that a bribe to get him to come down?
