Jump Kitty JUMP!

Although I excude manliness, I am a huge Cat person. Dogs have never been my thing because of the neediness they show RIGHT when you walk in the door. “Hi puppy…DOWN PUPPY DOWN!” Cats are just sweeter and more independent and couldn’t care less if I was there or not. I like that. Of course I happen to adopt the NEEDIEST cat in the world. Sometimes I wish I were a couple stories higher in my apartment complex so that it I could just toss him out the highest window! (that is what I like to call a segue) Speaking of throwing a cat out the window! =D

Did you know that your cat has up to a 96% chance of living if you throw him out of a 9 story window? I wish I was making that up. Due to some weird cat instinct when their bodies reach Terminal Velocity it relaxes, unlike humans who tense up. This allows them to land softy on the ground (on their feet of course) and walk away with only a few bruises. It happened in Boston last week when a cat fell out of a 19th story window and only bruised his chest.

However, anything less than 9 stories will KILL your little kitty. They have to reach terminal velocity or their bodies stay tensed up. If that happens then SPLAT!!!
