Kitty climbers
We spend Christmas/NY week at Lake Cahuilla park south of La Quinta CA. We took our two cats, who, we discovered, just love to climb!
"Binki" is quite resourceful at finding ways to get on my roof via the truck and the awning. She tried climbing the ladder but that didn't work out so well.

This is the GF with the two cats, white and dark, to her left, part way up the mountain. The day before, both cats scaled the mountain to the very top, bounded down easily, and then ran at full tilt back to camp. They loved being out where they can run, and boy can they run! The rattlesnakes are dormant this time of year, otherwise they wouldn't be going there! We didn't see or hear any birds of prey or coyotes. We try to balance protecting them with letting them be cats. They are inside at dusk.. never out at night.

The white kitty also loved rolling in the dirt and then coming in and depositing it in the RV. That was the only downside to that CG.. very dusty.
