He is tall, handsome and has long legs and covers the ground when he walks. :heart3: umpkin: Perkins reminds me of Liam Neeson, the actor. She really is absolutely the daintiest walking kitty I have ever known. She also has a girlie walk, and crosses her legs a bit as she walks across the room. He saunters a bit ( like Laurie's Shelly :happ圓 rincess: Perla walks around like she is on egg shells, very, very cautiously with each step thought about. Each foot placement seems heavy too, like a big lion walking along in his territory. I would say :king: Pipsqueak, who is smaller walks with a very confident stride and a bit bow legged in front :lol3. It has always interested me too !!!!!! Either coming towards me or away from me, I always get a smile watching how different they all walk. I always LOVE to watch my cat's walk, run, play, jump and move around. I can tell it's him walking with my eyes closed. Arthritis has slowed his gait and he shuffles around like my grandpa. He's also a master of the "stretch-walk", where his front legs walk normally but his back legs lag behind until they're almost parallel to the ground.Īztec would be 90 if he was a human, and his walk reflects that. Then when he reaches his destination, he flumps down with emphatic flair and a big sigh, like we should all appreciate the huge effort he just made. He swings his butt and wafts his tail back and forth with the drama of movie-star. Peppercorn is the most elegant of them all. If he's not in full speed mode, then he trots everywhere he goes, somewhat like a coyote. He leaps and bounces and slides around corners like a Jet Li stuntman. He's usually seen running at full tilt, his back end going faster than his front. Her head kinda hangs low and she swings it side to side as she walks, like a Komodo dragon.Ĭarrot is a maniac. She pretty much stomps around the house like line-backer, even though she's the most petite of the 4. Cinnamon Girl has this rather un-feline bulldogish gait for such a dainty looking thing. I love watching my cats move around! I find it fascinating how unique each one is in that regard. So how do you describe your kitties and how they move? Ming Loy - wobbles (she's a CH kitty) :spin:Ĭhumley - bounces :blobblue: (though for such a chunky monkey, we're always SO surprised at how graceful he is!) Tuxedo - pings around (Like Ricochet Rabbit) :lol3: But when he was feeling his worst - well - he didn't move around much, let alone with any strut.īut it got me paying attention to how my kitties move around. ![]() Lazlo's is (usually) a very confident strut, not a goofy strut. Lazlo happens to have a really "jaunty" strut, and I described it as watching Charlie Chaplin - but that's really because I can't help but associate that "jaunty strut" with a bowler hat ( Don't ask - I don't know why LOL). But it wasn't until this journey with Lazlo's cancer that I realized how much it communicates about how they feel. I've always loved watching our kitties walk/run around.
