50 Of The Best Pictures Of Cats Watching People From Up In The Ceiling
It is no real secret that cats (virtually all cats, at that) love to get up to as much mischief as is humanly possible—well, cat-possible, anyway. Despite their small frames, tiny little paws, and adorable whiskers, cats manage to get into a lot of trouble; the chaos simply calls to them.
One thing that cats particularly enjoy is climbing and hiding. Some cats go outside to do most of their adventuring and climb trees, whereas other cats have taken up the challenge to explore every nook and cranny of their house: it is a decision we have no choice but to respect.
Of course, not all cats are this adventurous and are certainly happy to spend their days sleeping in regular places, such as in their baskets or, more likely, on their human beds. Some cats take this to a whole new level—literally.
Yes, some cats have chosen the ceiling as the place they would most like to explore. Not just climbing up on high objects such as cupboards or bookshelves to get a look at the ceiling; no, some cats like to climb inside the ceiling and stare down menacingly at their unsuspecting owners!
