The shortest cat is adorable!
I know! Its soooooo cute. I showed it to Mr Oli (my male cat) and was like LOOK can we adopt a kitten like this as your child? 😉 He didn’t exactly give me the look of “ok go on” lol
Haha doesn’t want anyone stealing his thunder now does he!
Haha exactly
How did you train?
Ah it’s not our cat =o. It’s from the world record book. But a very good question how they trained her to jump that far!
Of course 😀 I am marveled
🙂
What interesting records! Just love the photos and can’t decide which one I like best! Thanks for sharing these.
Thank you 🙂 so glad you enjoyed them ^^
Love this…the jumping cat looks like my beloved Christeve:)
Thank you 😀
Loving that dwarf munchkin. How cute.
I know I would love to adopt one like that. I’m sure Oli and Nubes would get jealous tho lol
I wonder what Easy would say when he had the chance to meet a cat like Trouble… think he probably would run away :o)
Haha xD
Thanks for the post! Really enjoyed it… 😀
Thank you 🙂
Very interesting information and photos. All the cats are cute.
Thank you 🙂

My girlfriend and I love Colonel Meow. He had a lot of personality, and he died much too young 🙁

Haha! That is very true 😀
SO COOL! That Lilliput is so adorable! She was our favorite 🙂 Who are we kidding… they are all cool! Perhaps we need to try to set some world records…
Maybe we should work together for a fun cat blog record 😀 Must research if there is something we could do as a community. Maybe most cat bloggers to meet in real life? XD
I love this!! PURRfect!?
