Catching mommy off guard

I think it's our job as kitties to keep our pawrents on their toes. I've done that twice recently and mommy just can't stop laughing when she thinks about it. Yesterday I was playing with a squishy bug toy that Grannie got me. Mommy decided to throw it for me and it bounced off the wall and I went after it. We kept playing the bounce the bug off the wall game. Mommy was so ticked because my tail was fuzzy every time I chased it. I don't get fuzzy with any other toys, just this one. I guess it is kind of funny.

Earlier today I was wanting attention from mommy, and frankly I was wanting some of her soup. She turned her back on me and I jumped onto her back and fell back down. What really surprised her was I jumped all the way up and put my front paws on her shoulder. She said none of her kitties have ever jumped that high without taking a step or two first. I did it in one straight jump. She thought I was just good at the long jump but I've shown her I can be good at the high jump too.
