Danny climbs everything, but not this!

Ginger cat Danny from Cornwall will climb every tree when we walk. Nothing is off bounds. But Danny will not climb the ladder to the loft, and he wants to!

[@judybee]

Round and round he goes ....You can see him thinking ''This is not a tree!''...Will he? Won't he?....... Will he....????....No he won't!! 🙀...Bless him! .....Maybe next time???!😾🪜

[@dannycatyoung]

He just wasn't happy, despite climbing this ladder before. I don't blame him though. It is confusing because Danny's other ventures in to the loft/attic in other houses were definitely easier 😀🐈❤️

[@pamelahelengunchick654]

He is so adorable! Love you Danny!!!

[@dannycatyoung]

Thank you Pamela 🐈❤️

😺🐈💕Oh Danny I know you want to! Youre just too cute! I remember last year when he circled the ladder before he went up. Amazing Ginger Superstar Danny is.❤❤

[@dannycatyoung]

Thanks Sascha! Danny so wanted to go up the ladder bless him 😀 As you say, he has been up before, with a similar ritual of circling the ladder. Danny will be moving to a new house very soon, so a new challenge with the loft/attic 😀🐈❤️

[@saschastolz61]

@@dannycatyoung Bless him, he's going to be doing a lot of inspecting in the new home! Best wishes to you.❤️

@@dannycatyoung I wish you and your family well on the move to the new house. Please do it in stages if you are able, so it's less of a physical and mental strain. I want to share that my neighbor moved out last week, and in all the commotion, her indoor-only cat somehow got loose. He was discovered hours later, unharmed. Fortunately, this all happened at the old apartment during the move-out process, so he was somewhat familiar with the lay of the land despite hardly ever going outdoors, and he had friendly neighbors searching for him all day. Had it happened at the new apartment in the midst of the move-in process, he would have gotten even more lost and frightened, and no one in the neighborhood would have recognized him.

Lovey Danny. ❤🎉

Thank you so much! 🐈❤️

Oh, I will climb anything for fun, but I won't climb that, oh no. No, I won't climb that! -- Danny Loaf

[@dannycatyoung]

Danny usually charges up the ladder to the loft/attic, but this setup does not work for him 😀🐈❤️

[@keithbates598]

Danny is smart, I wouldn't climb up the ladder either ❤❤❤Joan

[@dannycatyoung]

Yes, Danny is smart, I am sure that he is laughing when I struggle up it 😂🐈❤️

[@emilyx8377]

I love how cats are unable to walk past a ladder without assessing its possibilities for climbing. It makes me smile every time.

[@dannycatyoung]

You are so right Emily, Danny has done this routine many times 😂 But he actually climbed the ladder yesterday, and we didn't catch it on camera! 🫢

[@julianash4663]

Imnot keen onkadders either Danny ifeel unsteady take care Danny x

[@dannycatyoung]

Danny knows when to walk away bless him 😀🐈❤️

[@ritasmith9553]

My kitty did that once. He'd been wanting to for years. Of course ours was an actual staircase into the attic - to which he was forbidden! He zipped up there, and zoomed from one end to the other for a couple of hours. In and out of pink fluff insulation. Finally got him back down. He hacked and coughed insulation for about 6 months after! "Silly kitty. That's why you were forbidden!"

[@dannycatyoung]

Oh no, I hope he was ok! Danny has been up a few different ladders to attics over the years, this one is the most challenging, and he'll need to get used to a different attic soon😀🐈❤️

[@ritasmith9553]

@@dannycatyoungHe was OK, but we couldn't do anything about it anyway. As soon as I got my hands on him, I brushed and brushed and brushed him -- but you know, even if you get it on skin it can be a problem. So imagine ingesting the tiny bits. He eventually stopped coughing. I would def. recommend keeping them away from the stuff at all costs!

[@susanellis7780]

Danny knows he would have fell❤😊

[@dannycatyoung]

You are probably right, Danny is a careful boy 🐈❤️

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

Oh eventually he will hehe. If it was a wooden latter he he sink his claws in he would have went right up it 😊😸

[@dannycatyoung]

Yes, you are so right, Danny knew he couldn't get his claws in that metal abomination 😂🐈

[@eddienothing9610]

We both like that Poäng, eh Danny? Hah, stupid metal tree

[@dannycatyoung]

Danny wants something he can get his claws in to 😀🐈

[@wednesdayweld564]

If he is like my cat, he just needs a little more angle added to the ladder! ☺

[@dannycatyoung]

You are right, the ladder is not best for this loft/attic, but Danny has climbed it before. Perhaps it's an age thing, he may not feel so confident 🐈❤️

[@phantomstrangermedia]

As I said before, one of my cats followed me up ladders & I bet Danny would too if his Dad was climbing ahead of him. But my cat used ladders for naughty purposes - like chasing birds on the roof (once a big hawk).

[@dannycatyoung]

It's funny, because Danny has always climbed up the loft/attic ladder in previous houses before me, I don't usually get a chance to go up before him, he is too quick 😂 He is getting a bit more selective 😀🐈❤️

[@lydialen6881]

Yes, cats and ladders are not a good combination.

[@dannycatyoung]

Danny was great with the previous houses and loft/attic ladders, but this one is not working for him, and we totally understand why, bless him 🐈❤️

[@DashKitten]

Oooh so CLOSE!!!!

[@dannycatyoung]

He so wanted to climb it! 😀🐈❤️

[@TatyanaTega]

Денни не захотел лезть по лестнице, потому что вспомнил своё недавнее падение с ворот?…😊

[@blackyellowred2000]

Same text in English: Danny didn't want to climb the stairs because he remembered his recent fall from the gate?...

[@dannycatyoung]

Thank you Tatyana! Очень хорошее наблюдение! Дэнни становится неуклюжим. Больше всего на свете он любит лазить по деревьям 😅🐈❤️

[@robertdegiro]

tommy theres nothing like nature

[@dannycatyoung]

Danny does prefer to be outside 😀🐈❤️

[@pamelazuill8438]

Dad little Danny was sleeping (resting), so why did you wake him up?

[@dannycatyoung]

Because Danny would tell me off if he missed an opportunity to go up in to the loft/attic 😂🐈❤️

[@pamelazuill8438]

@@dannycatyoung Ok! cause he knows doesn;t go up there that much and being an attic he gets to discover and check all kinds of crevices, turns and corners to see where they lead to and the like and to see if anything has changed to what he remembers!
