I’ve been straight up bawling because I can see Melbcat getting old… and then she ran at full speed out of the back room to the screen door.

Was there a bad cat she scared away? The world will never know.

She's just proving she's still a spry lady :D

You think they're old and you feel bad and then they fucking scale the cutains and parkour off the ceiling at mach 5

She is definitely slowing down and getting creakier.

She’s still happy… eating, affectionate, curious about birds outside and moving around. But it’s a spectre. I might consider adding cbd into her regime and will be watching over the coming years to ensure she’s still okay and enjoying life.
