Conquering the Great Outdoors

Klick was a fearless little cat, and he really liked high places. He loved this tree in front of our house, and would jump around on it from branch to a branch like a monkey. He liked to run from the main branches to smaller and smaller ones, until he was standing on a branch as wide as his one paw. This was NOT fun to watch for us, standing on the ground.
He also liked to climb the tree in our front yard, in one straight vertical run up the trunk, move on to a thinner branch and jump onto our roof. He had his route all worked out, and ground to roof usually took 2 seconds. He loved chasing squirrels up and down that roof, and then peering at us over the edge, as we stood on our front porch.
Our Mazda never looked so good as when he was on its roof grooming himself, or just chilling .
