Pommel cat.

We were just lounging around the other weekend when Thelma padded into the room and stunned us with an impromptu display of feline gymnastics. After some deft floorwork, she leapt onto an improvised pommel horse and worked her way through a dazzling routine including circles, flares, cross-support travels and even a Wendeswing flop! Here she is mid-travel:


Her dismount, as you would expect, was flawless, and the judges were unanimous in awarding straight 10s; except for the German, Shepherd, who gave her a 1, but then you expect that sort of bias from his kind.

Comma was also quite an athletic cat, and I can only the imagine the performance these two could have knocked together if ever they'd had the chance to collaborate.
