As I recall Lee Marsh had a cat that was known for doing laps on the classic dihedral on the bucksnort slabs... the cat would climb onto the back of hapless climbers on the route for a convenient ride, or so the story goes... |

Thanks, Mike. It needed to be done.
Tom, sorry for encouraging this. But, again, it needed to be done. |

I have a "climbing cat". He follows us anywhere we go. Camping, hiking, climbing, he'll even get in a canoe. When he was a kitten, we took him everywhere with us, and now it's just natural to him. When he was 4 weeks, I threw him in my pack to rap down a cliff, and expected him to freak out (it was the only way down). When I got to the bottom, I opened the pack and he was sleeping.
When he comes to the crag with us, sometimes he'll see us climbing something and scramble up some 4th class stuff to meet us on top (he usually BEATS us!). He still doesn't understand why we always take the hard way up though. When he sees/hears us packing up, he comes back and follows us out. The most he's hiked so far is 4 miles on an overnight backpacking trip. I like the fact that if he gets hurt or even just tired, he's small enough to carry.
Oh and he loves the snow!
I'll try to get some pics up if I can
Best thing about him: He doesn't bark

A climbing partner told me about a guy who backpacked back East with his cat. His cat would ride on his pack during the day and take care of the mice all night in the huts, so other backpackers loved to see this guy on the trail. |

| People say a lot of negative things about Fluffy; saying that he's ugly, saying that he's scary, saying he's not a cat. But we love him all the same.
