My cat Parker ran up the tree out front. I just looked at him and said "ok fuckface, see you when you decide to come down".

He could sense my tone of voice, and just shimmied his ass back down. It was hilarious.

And before that he was thinking "Come 'rescue' me, you poor fuck."

Oh yeah, he was totally in rascally play mode. I love rascally play mode, but not when it's bring out a ladder and go through the motions of rescue play mode LOL

I had never seen a cat's ass just wiggle itself backwards down a tree before, always more of a "suicide dive" while kind of running down the trunk, and then sprint to safety when they land

I guess Parker could sense when I started to turn my back on him that I was not having any of it that day lol
