My cat loves watching the sun set
 

Is this normal? I didn't think animals were into that sorta thing, but night after night... he's right out there.

Tonight I went out there too, and he came over and snuggled up against my knee... so I got a pic.

But... since when do cats like to watch the sunset?

Prince is a cat amung .. Wait a minute... :helpme

... i use to do that when i got my heart broken:(

maybe you have a love struck cat bro:2 cents:

Don't worry about it. He's just waiting for the sun to set so he can start killing things. Cats love to hunt :thumbsup

Sounds like you have a cool cat. :thumbsup

I think they probably just like being outside.

that's pretty fucking cool :thumbsup

he's just thinking of all the cool things he could do outside if he wasn't locked in a 4th story condo.

That or he's wondering if he is high enough up to kill himself when he jumps.

Maybe he wishes he's outside!

I leave the door open pretty much all day, he comes and goes out there... checking stuff out.

But every night, right at sunset, he'll be out there for an hour or more... right through the entire thing.


Heh, Crockett, you're close... 8th floor actually. So no, he knows full well he can't make the jump. He approaches the edges of the balcony with great caution. I think he's actually scared of heights :1orglaugh

thats cute :)

I'm pretty sure a cate is more likely to survive an eight-story fall than a four-story fall. I forget where the exact cutoff is but I know at above a certain height they actually have a better chance to survive because they have time to orient themselves.

no shit? thats badass if so, imma hit up google for that shit

damn 8th lol I was thinking 5th or 6th at the most

Maybe he just wanted to relax for a little bit.

Smart cat!

You have a balcony up in that place?

Only on the sides I am assuming, never saw any on the front of the building.

I think it was more that they get over the initial shock of falling, and their muscles instinctively relax, which results in less injury when they hit the ground. If they fall from a lower height then they don't have time for this.

My cat rolled right off the edge once at a flat I used to live in. She hung onto the concrete by her front claws and dragged herself back up somehow. I was lunging for her but it was all over in a couple of seconds. Her little heart was going a million miles a minute after that.

It was a first floor flat, but there *was* concrete below, so who knows what would have happened if she hadn't pulled herself up.

BTW, that first pic is really cool, that would be great shot if it was professionally done. :thumbsup

nope, balcony is right out front... facing the water.

I never would have moved down here if I didn't have a good ocean view :winkwink:

Heh, yeah... I was happy enough with it, just my little pocket camera... holding it out infront of me.

Turned out better than I expected :)

we used to have a cat that loved watching hocky, he would always try to get the puck...lol

Awww how sweet!! My cat looks like yours. I am always picking him up to show him the sunset but he's not interested. My cats only like watching birds and bugs.

awesome

Our cat watches it every night 2 :1orglaugh

All my cat likes to do is sit on the computer mouse. Makes it difficult to work.

nice pic m8

My cat leaves my mouse alone, but he does like to sleep in between the keyboard and monitor. So long as he's asleep, he's not in the way... but awake, he can get annoying :)

Thanx johnbosh :thumbsup

You got quite a view up there!

My cat loves to lay around where the sun can shine through.

And it is definately a nice view. :)

classy cat you have there.

Nice.

I had the same view from down the street... Boathouse patio is definately an awesome place for drinks and sunsets during the summer :thumbsup

Your cat got taste! :thumbsup

Cute:thumbsup
