'Lil Cocopuff was playing by the stairs
and she went through the rail and fell about 12 feet.

Scared the heck out of everyone in the house...
she stood still for a few minutes...
sneezed once...then resumed playing...

however I bet she never falls through the railing again.

She's a little over 3 pounds now...so i don't think she hit with too great
of a force

Purrs that Cocopuff stays away from that railing.
Your poem reminds me of the song :My Grandfather's Clock .
Whitecat was a charmer. May he rest in peace. MLB

Yes... little Cocopuff will probably be a lot more careful...
she is an amazing climber.
In the basement...I've attached some long carpet scraps to the ceiling...
and she climbs up and down them with ease.
Though any cat can climb up something with ease...Cats are not usually too
great at climbing down...
and Cocopuff is very good at easing herself down backwards.

She turned out to be way to adventurous to stay indoors...
so we do let her out but *only* under supervision. There are some bushes in
the front yard which she climbs around in...
and she is quite amazing how she runs from branch to branch.

Anyway...when I go to sleep at night she curls up on my chest and purrs...
just the way WhiteCat did.

Although we will *always* miss WhiteCat...
Cocopuff (or Puffer as we often call her) sure has made it happy around here
again!

You were lucky! Isis fell down a couple of steps a couple of years ago and
conked her head. She had temporary epilepsy probably due to a concussion and
swelling. After a couple of days she was back to normal. These little guys
have fragile noggins!

Glad Isis is OK now.

I can sure see why they say cat's have 9 lives though.
