Mir-mur found a new place to 'hang out':

This is what she did to my shower curtain in the process:

Yeah, right. Little Miss Pure Innocence.

Oh but look at those curly toes in the last picture. She's soooo cute. And
maybe it was time for a new look in the shower :)

Notice the curtain behind her in that last picture? Yes, it too is
hanging from only a few clips due to *someone* using it for climbing
practice. I don't even have curtains in the bedroom any more, because I
wouldn't get any sleep with Miranda swinging from them at all hours.
Luckily, there are blinds in the new place. I'm not even going to put up
curtains at all. Will get a new shower curtain when I move, though.

Ya know....you are a prime candidate for what my dad did when I was little.
One day, he came home with a large amount of carpet samples. I don't know if
you have them there, but here they have these little finished off rectangles
of carpet that people can look at for color and texture etc. Sometimes they
sell them or give them away when the carpet is discontinued or throwout old
books. He took liquid nails and glued them on one wall. He completely
covered an 8 x 12 ft wall, but one wouldn't need to do that much. He *said*
it would make good insulation but I know he had the cats fun in mind since
that room did not get particularly cold. The cats had a blast for many years
running down the hall and up that wall. Sounds like it is righ up Mir's
alley :)

I remember that wall of your dad's. I'd love to do something like that,
but I'm not sure there would be carpet samples available anywhere. We
seldom have carpet in homes here, mostly just in hotels.

I just thought of something. The guy I bought the cat tree from buys
used carpet (from Germany, IIRC). Maybe I could ask him if he could
construct something for me.

I *know* they would love it. I'm sure he would be able to help you out.

Hee, what great pictures.

I've always been thankful Lynxie isn't a real climber. He never really
goes anywhere higher than my desk or on tables!

May your shower curtain rest in peace. (Pieces? }:) )

Miranda can never get high enough. She's always climbing curtains and
bookcases. I'm thinking of installing a climbing wall when I move to the
new place. At least I'll have to get some higher cat trees.

And I was thinking of your dad's climbing wall when I wrote the above,
and I hadn't read your post yet. Great minds indeed. :oP

Vino used to do that in our shower in Vancouver.  Except that we had a
sliding glass door instead of a curtain, so at least he couldn't
damage that.  It was so funny because he used to hang out up there and
look down on us while we were showering.  He ended up leaving a trail
of cat hair stuck to the ceiling!  I just checked all my files for a
pic but it seems like I never got one.  Aargh, the dark days before
digital ;-)

Was Miranda possibly lounging in front of your tv while
a showing of that old American classic, "Psycho" was going on? (with Finnish
subtitles, of course) Lacking opposable thumbs to grasp a knife, one might
resort to claws.....LOL.

LOL! That reminds me of a time when Isadora (RB) was a wee bitty. At that
time, I had a woven hanging decorating my bedroom wall. (It wasn't very
attractive or well woven, mind you, but I had woven it myself, AND I had put
the warp on the loom, which is both a tedious and an intricate process.)
Anyhow, one morning, I wake up to the distressed "meeps!" of a kitten who
has got herself into trouble.  Izzy had CLIMBED  my weaving! And she hadn't
done it any good, either.  Her little claws were evidently too firmly hooked
in the fabric to get herself loose. She also did quite  a number on the
drapes in that apartment.  RIP, woven wall hanging!

Nina's favorite climbing exercise is to climb the screen door opening on to
my back patio. I'll look up, and she'll be hanging there, having the most
wonderful time cooling off. =o)

Heh, 'exotic'. I think she looks positively extra-terrestrial. Or like a
stylised cat, like one of those statues of Bast.

Yup. Which is why we keep the fancy cloth shower curtain in the guest
bathroom folded up on the rod.

What a character.

Stinky did that kind of thing when he was her age.  Spent more time
near the ceiling than the floor. ;)
