I am writing this post from a cruise ship. My wife and I started our vacation yesterday.
Before we drove to the cruise terminal yesterday, I took Frankie for a walk. During the walk Frankie took me to the far side of our community’s laundry room. He walked between a fence and a bush, where I couldn’t follow, so I let go of his leash and went around to collect him on the other side.
Just then he heard or saw something that scared him and he took off running, dragging his leash behind him. I ran after him. He stopped momentarily but heard me running. That must have scared him more so he ran up a palm tree.

He then had to figure out how to get down so he turned around and came down like a squirrel.

It’s always an adventure with Frankie.

Just want you needed before heading out on your cruise! Have fun. This was sure entertaining!
Thanks.
OMC…I would have been in a panic. We once had to cancel a trip because of an escaped cat hiding beneath a bush where I could not get to her. They are very cute photos, however. Hope the gang behaves while you are away.

Thanks. I did consider not taking him for a walk because I didn’t want problems but I was not able to take him out since Monday so I thought he deserved to go out.
Oh goodness!! So happy he came back down the tree!! 💙
That could have gone much worse.
Oh definitely! I would be horrified! I’m so glad it worked out for his safety and that you didn’t have to cancel your vacation!
Thanks. That would have sucked.
Oh yes, for sure.
*gulp* Going up is one thing. Coming down is another! What a daredevil!
Love and licks,

He is something else.
I think you need to change the name of the blog to Bad Cat Frankie. 🙂 Have a great cruise.
Thank you. We have a new king of badness.

He sure does sometimes.
Scary but hilarious photos of poor Frankie. Hope you and Rose have a wonderful cruise!
Hugs, Pam
Thanks. 😀
Frankie, really?!?! That was way up there!
I know. I was shocked.
OMC! He really was high up! Thank cod he figured out how to get down. Have fun on your cruise!
I was worried about that.
all good things come in trees :O) fortunately there was a happy end… have a good time and enjoy your cruise….
Thanks.
We had a dog that could sense when the family was headed out. He’d run a bit farther than we could catch him, look over his shoulder, and – I swear! – play like he was about to run away again. He always looked like he was grinning and enjoying the game.
Animals are smart and weird.
LOL!
That’s pretty impressive. A lot of cats would have frozen up there.
Frankie is special. 😀
Damn!! i’m impressed! Most cats won’t come down like that! Enjoy your vacation!
Yes. I was surprised he didn’t come down backwards.
