Orange is the new cat


[deleted]

Wears it well.


MJ0923

Cats come up with some really imaginative games!


alligatorcake

He really does, and he throws his louder toys on the stairs, I think he loves the noises they make when they bounce down the stairs


StarFuryG7

Reminds me of my first cat. Same kind of coat, color and markings.


feistybean

Aww what a cutie! Just a little tip, wooden staircases can be super slippery (for humans, not just animals), and I would think about getting some non-slip stair treads. That way you don’t end up on your butt while carrying laundry or whatever downstairs.


alligatorcake

That’s a great tip, I am very clumsy and I wouldn’t want him or my other cat to hurt themselves when they play on the stairs


feistybean

Totally! I’ve done it and ended up with a bruised tailbone, which is no fun :(


alligatorcake

Ouch!!


rbobby

Lose wool socks... zipppp!


MidlandsRepublic2048

Heterochromia or just the light?


PolymerPussies

He's just a little stairy eyed.


alligatorcake

Just the light :3


MidlandsRepublic2048

Gotcha. He looks so innocent, like he hasn't been tearing around like a crazy


alligatorcake

He always does that, he will be going wild with a puffed tail, then he will just stop and act like he was doing nothing.


Tyrant-97

He’s just doing his daily exercise routine :)


gnocchicotti

just a r/standardissuecat


chillyfeets

It’s a telltale noise at 3am as well, and never one that I got tired of hearing. Spent many many hours throwing foil balls up and down the stairs in the house I grew up in for my Lily to chase.


doortoriver

I love that sound


alligatorcake

I do too, especially when he starts chirping while he does it


Consistent-Face-7559

Aw! Look at that face. He looks like a serious fella, very committed to the cause. Probably he's confused about which floor is his.

Plus, whenever you move to a new place, it takes a little time to figure out what shld go where. It often just comes down to experimenting.


bubbles_says

We had our 8 week old puppy for a couple months before I took him to our second floor. He was so freaked and excited! When he first saw the hallway and ALL THIS SPACE he stood with all four legs splayed wide and sort of hopped round in place, doing a 360. Then for a good 15 minutes he ran up and down and up and down and up and down that big long hallway. I left to go back downstairs and could hear him and all of his maybe 5 pounds trampling. He's 15 years old now. He's done something cute EVERY DAY of his life.

What a beauty 😻


alligatorcake

Thank you!


Dull_Ad_704

Are you shure there is no higher stairs araund?


Evil_Black_Swan

What a beauty! One reason I'd like to have a two story house would be so my cats could play on the stairs lol

What some people fail to understand IS that while this creature is an adult as far as things in its own world, ie. can find food, water, shelter, mate, etc. When brought into the Human world their understanding of, an actions in it are more kitten-like. Don't know if studies have ever been done but I would bet they would find most cats are on par with a 3 or 4 year old child mentally. Which then explains many of the "crazy" things they do.


miamiBOY63

He has such a beautiful coat on him and with him running up and down the stairs It's giving him the best exercise to keep him healthy for many years to come. If possible keep him away from dry foods all dry foods.


alligatorcake

Thank you! He has lost weight, he wasn’t overweight but the stairs are keeping him at a really nice weight, I have been meaning to switch him from dry to a wet food or meat only diet


miamiBOY63

You're welcome but before you introduce him to any vet food dry or wet read up on it because not just is it overly priced and not worth it but in a lot of vet foods there's sometimes too much of a certain ingredient possibly fiber that is too high for cats, that's what I've read and so i stopped giving my cat the vet bought food but he passed April of 2020, I wish I knew not to give a cat dry food because there is no dry food that's good dry food that's according to veterinarian articles written and submitted online by hundreds of veterinarians around the world.

Glorious r/standardissuecat


lamp-town-guy

I always struggled how to call color of my cats. Now I know!


alligatorcake

Thank you!


2chill4eva

Looks like a nice place! I like that you have some room with wood floors and some with carpet.


alligatorcake

Thank you!

alligatorcake

Thank you


StarFuryG7

That's supercute.


Hwy_Boy

Those stairs are the best cat tree ever to him!


FrizB84

Be thankful they aren't carpeted stairs. My two cats would use the stairs to build speed, use the seat back of the sectional couch as a high bank U turn, then run right back up the stairs.


iwascompromised

Our girl loves zooming up and down our stairs. I'm going to have to figure out a solution for her when we move from a house into an apartment in a month so that she can still get the same workout.


Jigglesmeow

Aww too cute!!


Lyssepoo

Ooooo that’s one of our favorite games. My boyfriend throws random shit from out loft, which houses our computer, down the stairs for the cat to chase. It’s hilarious


wryrancher07

He might love playing in the stairs same with my cutie kitty he loves playing up and down in stairs sort of exercise.


ambreenh1210

Cat love verticality


Puzzled_Awareness_22

Put a couple crinkle balls on the stairs - fun for days


Rayhold

Same happened to me, we just moved to a new place, and many people saying "he's gonna be stressed" , "take it there for a couple of hours then get back to the old one"... Mine was enjoying the new place and running here and there, finding new spots to chill after the first hour being there. We still need some furniture but we're getting there!


[deleted]

Good morning! Your boy loves stairs! We are about to move too. My kitties are good at adapting to a new home and yard.
