I wouldn't say ALL cats check the physics before leaping.
I mean, they're impressive as a group... but individual outliers exist. My wife and I have 4 of them, lol.
Can confirm. We also have 4ish and one of them is so adorably and inexplicably dumb. ๐น
How do you have 4ish cats?
LOL Well, the cat momma of our unexpected (and dumb) third is a bit of an oddball. We've tried to keep her indoors, but because she grew up outdoors, she wants to go outside or gets a little roudy with the other cats or starts rummaging and breaking stuff. But she's also perfectly content staying inside for a few hours while she naps, so we often let her in when we get home or when the weather is awful. She's with us but she's not really with us, but we treat her just the same.
