Dammit Cat,
You got up there, so why can't you get down?
I realize that, as an indoor cat, you do not have any trees to become stuck up in. Was the ladder a close enough substitution for you to be unable to get down on your own?
I watched you climb up on it. You took it rung by rung. I watched you use your new-found height to get up on cabinets that you had never before reached. I watched you get back on it, and go one rung down. Then you stopped.
Despite being right next to the island and with a counter on the other side (either of which you could have easily jumped down on), you froze. You started to howl and fuss.
You didn't even flail like usual when I picked you up and set you on the floor.
Is it something in your little kitty DNA? You can get up and down off of the entertainment center and it's higher than the ladder. Heck, you can get in and out of your cat tree, and it's the same height.
Oh
Is it like some sort of kitty kryptonite? Some self-destruct in your little cat brain?
Whatever it is, I know that even though you either can't or won't get down off of a ladder, the second one is out again you'll be climbing up onto it.
