Caught him again! Dexterous little devil.

This is the cat who figured out drawer child locks so we had to put child locks on both ends of the drawer (he loved this one drawer so he could crawl down behind it and hide in the kitchen island)

(His treats are in this cabinet)

In case you’ve never met Mars before, he also loves to sit on top of doors (yep he leaps up there from the floor), is a practiced escape artist, will kill every small creature in the neighborhood, and has fought both turkeys and coyotes.

We do our best to keep him inside

Here he is as a kitten, leading a kitten rebellion in the barn (he’s the tall one in the middle). Photo by @SustainableDish

He also likes to hang out on the curtain rod

His pose on the curtain rod reminds me of...

One time someone in the family (it wasn’t me) didn’t realize he got into the sunroom and went to work, so he had many hours alone with the fish tank.

It was a massacre. Happiest day of Mars’s life. There were fish guts everywhere.
