How can I put this without sounding horrid?
Both Ruby and Millie are about as graceful as a couple of bull elephants :-[. The other four are perfectly well balanced and graceful, even Noni with her curves :)
A friend at work has a boy cat Ollie about 3 weeks older than the girls and he too is very clumsy. It was such a long time ago that we had kittens, I can't remember what Tommie was like when he was little.

I dont know cos never had kittems LOL

Yep, that about sums a kitten up - clumsy, gangly and no idea what it is and isn't capable of doing physically. Legs everywhere and falling off everything. :evillaugh: :Luv2: They get a lot more sensible by around 3 years old... until then, hide the ornaments. :doh:
-
I'm still waiting for all mine to get more graceful as they get older. They are 11, 11, 9 and 6.....
Two do have excuses - Baldrick is nearly blind and Ellis got run over when he was about 6 months old and is very wonky as a result. I'm not quite sure what the excuse is for the other two though ;) Apart from them going far too fast round the flat and not being able to stop!

Beavis is the picture of elegance - Jerry and Gizmo are somewhat less refined , in fact Jerry may well be the clumsiest cat I have ever seen! :evillaugh:
-
Chilli has always been quite graceful, judges 99.9% of jumps perfectly and can meander round all manner of delicate things without them moving. The 0.1% is the occasion she took out every item of mostly glassware on two kitchen shelves :evillaugh:
Dave on the other hand is a big old clumsy oaf! He has never mastered his limbs and regularly completely misjudges jumping onto things, even dining room chairs he is standing right next to, I've seen him miss completely :evillaugh:
And Dizzy who is 16 and lives with my Mum is also very graceful, although I have been told that she is getting a bit clumsier in her old age, we think maybe down to a bit of sight loss.

Mine all have problem tails and they just dont know how to keep them under control ;D
-
Morticia, who is very fluffy, has a Tail of Mass Destruction :D She can't help it, she has to wave her tail over the table as she goes past and pushes everything off onto the floor. Apart from that, and her mad half hours, she's not bad though - can walk along the mantelpiece without knocking anything off unless it's deliberate. But her tail causes as many problems as the other 3 cats put together.
-
Jaffa has never been graceful (sorry Jaf). If anything he's clumsier with age - when he was a kitten it was so easy but getting a bigger body around just results in him being more clumsy.
-
One word answer to your question ...... NO! :rofl: :rofl:

I'm still waiting for the day where a certain someone doesn't bang his head on the table or fall down the stairs or run into door frames :shocked:
