streetfestival , 4 months ago to cat in Miez and her new way up the cat wall - a story in six acts

For all Miez knows, many or most human homes come standard equipped with cat walls :P

Her different meows sound so different, which is expected but still neat to me. The “Hey, what’s up?” meow at the end of the 3rd video sounds so different from the “I don’t understand what to do next, please help” meows in videos 4 and 5.

I like it when she climbs the pole and halfway up uses it to scratch her head. It’s neat seeing her cognitively process and learn the environment.

I think from a human perspective cats are really blind; they can see movement better than we can (for hunting), but they can’t look across a room and identify things like we can and do. I thought of this when you were helping Miez navigate the parallel bars (monkey bars) with tapping and maybe touching the next bar. Then, after she jumped across one, I think she recognized the structure as one she had encountered before, as she made the second jump and the next jump quite quickly.

Has she mastered the jump from the wooden platform to the monkey bars (or vice versa)? That seems like it might be the most challenging manoeuvre at the moment due the platform being kind of shallow from the wall and maybe not much friction on the wood

Unlike [email protected], the .ml world news community has not been censoring valid criticism of Israel and their genocide of the Palestinian people

(Edit: I was wrong - today I learned after an Oxford dictionary search that casualty includes injury.)

Tens of thousands have already died in Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people, but I haven’t heard anything close to 100k. Here are quotes from the article

According to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, 27,585 Palestinians have been killed, and 66,978 wounded in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza starting on October 7.

Moreover, at least 8,000 people are unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of their homes throughout the Strip.
