My brother's cat, Billybonk isn't allowed on the new sofa, so he kind of crawls backwards until his bottom hits the sofa, then he tries to slide upwards with his bum till it's on the seat, then tries to bring his front paws up the front hoping you don't notice...when shouted at he gives you such a look! And if it's nice outside, he'll go out and meow at the budlea bush - alive with butterflies, he doesn't try to catch them or anythig, he just sits there catter-wauling at them!
