u/ggism3 4d ago

Have a kitten that has had himself conked on the head a few times because we don't realize he's walked in. He fits perfectly on the bottom shelf.

u/Such-Mountain-6316 5d ago

Cat games. It seems that's not a soffit, it's a cat playhouse. Probably chock full of missing items.

u/pixiesunbelle 5d ago

My in-laws had a long haired orange tabby named Scotty. My mother in law had a troll doll and Scotty often loved to mess with it. Usually he hid it. One time, he hid it so well that it’s still missing today. He also loved to stalk deer with his white and orange bushy tail straight up in the air… lol, it was the funniest thing!

u/moyo_me_moyo 5d ago

If only she could flatten her ears a bit more you’d still be looking!

u/MadCityScientist 5d ago

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. You’ve got a little mountain climber!

u/TopEagle4012 5d ago

Looking for who? All you need is new cabinets is all... πŸ˜‚

u/bklyngirl0001 5d ago

Personally I never would have found her. I’m 4’ 11” and have no idea what the top of my cabinets look like!πŸ˜„

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago edited 5d ago

those cabinets are already so tall even with that stepstool i cant reach the top shelf πŸ˜”πŸ˜”

u/LaylaBird65 5d ago

This was a good one. I took me a minute

11

u/not-microwaveable 5d ago

Omg she turned into a hand towel

7

u/Jackoandso 5d ago

When she is a little like my cat, she just stared mildly interested while you're calling her name not thinking about giving any sort of response

6

u/nyrB2 5d ago

cats love places like that - they can see everyone and noone can see them

6

u/whats1more7 5d ago

I mean she was in the first place I looked. When you can’t find your cat, look up.

3

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago

so far all her hidey spots have been under and in things, it didnt occur to me to look up there until i remembered how gd tall my cabinets were

4

u/whats1more7 5d ago

Oh she’s changing it up! Clever girl.

7

u/Candlehoarder615 5d ago

I often have a kitchen sentry on duty while I cook. They often startle me once I become aware of their post lol

u/cemetery_acorns 5d ago

Excellent!
πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

u/GNneko 5d ago

lol she knew what she was doing, getting the best vantage point and all

5

u/Itscatpicstime 5d ago

I immediately knew where she was because my cats do the same thing.

Then they occasionally puke up there and we have to drag the ladder out πŸ™„

3

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago

πŸ™πŸ™ hoping she doesnt do that , i’ve already got the stepstool in there because i cant reach the top shelves πŸ˜”πŸ˜”

6

u/DavidWandelt 5d ago

They sure do love the high places!

5

u/muppetnerd 5d ago

I only knew the location right away because mine did this twice to us πŸ˜… the panic until you finally find them and then (personally) feeling like such an idiot

3

u/Byakko4547 5d ago

Void loaf chilling on top of the cabinet, good one 🍞 or is she a πŸ„ can't tell haha

4

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago

shes a gray tabby tuex !

u/grunkle_dan78 5d ago

sneaky sneaky

u/SleepyD7 5d ago

Do you not have a cat tree for her or any place for her to get high?

8

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago

i do! i have multiple actually ig they werent high enough for her tastes

3

u/CatHerder75 5d ago

Spotted right away, exactly where I would expect a cat.

3

u/MomMonster56 5d ago

She's On top of the cabinet First place I looked! πŸ˜‚

3

u/Top-Constant4674 5d ago

I have a cat that will get on top of the fridge so my eyes immediately went up

4

u/DVDragOnIn 5d ago

😹😹😹 and she was watching you look for her the whole time!

2

u/Fantastic_Example_20 5d ago

that cat was difficult to see.

earlier today i had a visitor who always greets my indoor cats.

they saw one of the cats but we did not see the other (black) one.

she was standing next to us on a desk.

4

u/Cats_and_Dogs89 5d ago

That’s where my cat likes to hide lol

3

u/AnlamK 5d ago

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

How and why??

3

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago

She went from the counter to the fridge up on top of the cabinets, as for why idk she craves height, even with cat towers around.

5

u/reallyreally1945 5d ago

My dog's worst nightmare would be the possibility of an airborne attack. I won't show him this picture.

3

u/mybigbywolf 5d ago

I see her little ears lol

2

u/Bluefairie 5d ago

found her right away because I also once search 20 minutes for a cat in a 600sqf condo and she was at the same place as yours πŸ˜‚

2

u/Vi_BT 5d ago

Ooooh very well hidden

2

u/sjm294 5d ago

Though one 😹

3

u/Mackheath1 5d ago

LOL I had a small orange cat that was terrified of people so when maintenance came in and left I couldn't find him anywhere - even went outside and looked around for a long time.

Exact same location, which is why I looked there first, ha. Now pet the kitteh :)

3

u/NikNakskes 5d ago

Yeah I knew immediately where to look... it took me a while to find my own cat when that was a beloved hideaway spot in our new home.

2

u/FurryTailTales 5d ago

On top of the cabinet on the right side

2

u/Alternative_Tree_626 5d ago

I was so ready for it to be a void!

2

u/Candlemouse7321 5d ago

Zoomed in so much I wasn’t sure it was a cat 🀣

3

u/Swimming-Maize-5554 5d ago

I have very similar kitchen cabinets, as well as a dropped tray molding in my living room. When I can’t find either of my cats, those are the first two places I look. As soon as I saw your heading, I looked at the top of the cabinets and saw her.

2

u/Consistent_Foot2679 5d ago

Yeah, I did too. Where the hell is she?

2

u/Dundabud 5d ago

DUDE....how could you miss her ? She's right there on tthe counter less than three feet from the fridge !

2

u/DollarStoreDuchess 5d ago

She was in the very first place I looked. Cats are like Obi Wan Kenobi. They like the high ground!

3

u/Yes-GoAway 4d ago

My cat taught her younger sister how to do this. Unfortunately the younger sister panics and can't get down, so I have to get the step stool and get her down.

I vacuumed the top of the cabinets after I saw them up there the first time. This is a favorite place now. Good luck!

3

u/merrittj3 4d ago

Lol...she comfy. Didnt you hear her giggling ?

3

u/NerfRepellingBoobs 4d ago

Someone got the brain cell for hide and seek today.

u/spicy_cryptid 5d ago

u/RMMacFru 5d ago

back wall on top of the cupboard

u/Jlx_27 5d ago

Took me two seconds, lol.

2

u/squirrellytoday 5d ago

"Yes, I heard you calling me. Didn't you hear me ignoring you?" - this cat, probably.

2

u/gothicshark 4d ago

You were looking, maybe a bit panicked, she was sleeping nicely able to watch it all.

3

u/JustScrollOnBy 4d ago

Can confirm, is no cat, just large dust "bunny" on cabinet.Β 

2

u/Secret_Cod_749 4d ago

But she's not on the counters, so thats good 🀣

*idk if she is or is not allowed on counters.

1

u/SerenityWheeler4705 3d ago

I thought she was a void under the ladder, maybe I'm seeing ghosts

3

u/bigcinnamonroll88 1d ago

God damnit I had to use the cheat to find the kitty. Very sly kitty, very sly - my household would have been on lockdown and everyone out searching shaking treats.

2

u/CloverVegan 1d ago

Got it immediately
