Oh her majesty has no right to be on any counter.

I just meant any raised table, shelf, nightstand, etc.  The kitchen counter is the only one he's not allowed on.  So far, he still can't jump from the floor up onto the counter (though it's close).  He's tried twice to jump from a table I only use for storage and project onto the kitchen counter.  The second time he ended up with sticky stuff stuck to his feet and it scared the living daylights out of him, so he hasn't tried that leap since.  We'll see what happens when he can jump up on top of the partial wall (I think it's about 8' tall) between the livingroom and kitchen (there's a vaulted ceiling and the wall doesn't go all the way up.  His kitty tower gets him up about 6 feet, but so far he hasn't dared make the jump to the top of the wall.  Once there, he can go from the wall, to the top of the kitchen cupboards to the fridge to the counter...  I suspect I won't easily train him not to travel that route....

 

He just now discovered the magnifying glass in my lamp and is moving his paw around under it while looking through the glass. He seems quite puzzled.

Just give him time, you'll be surprised

That's good!

You can always put some sticky tape! That should deter him, if he inclines going the wrong way 😛

WHat's the big black cat, looking at me 😊 Thanks, some moments of innocence in a world gone nuts! 🙏

Of course Kitteh is peeved!  He's half wet and we all know how much cats like that.  The artwork always makes me smile.

 

The photo is gorgeous.  Now I want pomegranates.  And the chroma has a little intrigue to it.  So I don't dislike it as much as some others.  
 

@yazeh, thanks once again for these ink-splorations, especially the swabs.  I have a sample of Oscar Copper so that's useful.

Exactly.  So fun seeing the world through kitten eyes.
