Even though I've been playing petz for god knows how long, I have never seen a cat perform these two tricks before! I was just curious to know if I catched my cat doing a very cool new trick, or if I should just spend more time playing with them, so I would know about these thingsxD haha. So first up we have this one:I introduced my badger Dawson to Jemima and after they had been out for a few minutes she suddenly jumped up on the screen and started walking on it!0_o sideways... I know that catz jump to the side of the screen and I also know that they jump to the front only to slide off immediately after, but Jemima actually walked! And also this one:And then when I put Dawson away she used the side of the screen so she could hang like this... She doesn't do tricks for treats and I totally caught her doing those stunts by surprise, because I have never seen any of my catz do them...haha=D this has gotten me all excited! I love this cat<3.

Haha! Ive never seen that before in my catz. Perhaps its a glitch or something. Some glitches can be quite funny - especially when you get pics of them. XD
Your cat is lovely by the way! *steals*

HAHA Loki did the first one... but kinda splatted. I've had a couple cats do the wall climb, though idk what triggers it. Might just be their personality? Calis seem to do it more than other ones I've seen. And we all know Loki's just stupid so yeah .___.

As far as I know, when catz do it then it isn't a trick. It's just a behaviour. Spider did lots of testing on what tricks dogz and catz can do (you can find her guide here) and I know dogz can be taught to do that but catz just do it but it isn't a trick. I've had catz do it multiple times and it's cool but it makes me wish I could teach it to 'em, haha.

Ah, I see^^. I thought it was so funny too, because I can't learn Jemima to do any tricks, yet she suddenly started climbing and walking down the screen out of nowhere, haha. She is based off the Maine coon breed, so that would explain why she does it...if it are mainly the MC's and Calico's who do it=]. It just totally caught me by surprise, because I have never seen this happen before.
Petz is so cool!=D Hahah
And aww<3 thank you so much for the compliment, xemzx<3 Jemima sure is a pretty girl and I'm so happy that I got to adopt her!=D

I've seen dogs do the first one, where they jump forward to slide or walk down the screen, but I don't recall ever seeing a pet walk upside down at the top of the screen like in that bottom picture. That's funny though, it's always great when you see a pet do something unusual or new.

We had the first one a few weeks ago. That's the only time I've ever seen it. I can't remember who did it though. It was either Bagel or one of my calis. I'll have to ask my daughter as she was watching the game with me at the time and we were both like what are they doing?! lol The second again I can only recall seeing once and that was Psyduck. Interesting eyelid thing going on there. XD Going by the other pics taken around the same time she didn't like my dog Quirk being out. Psyduck is a bit of a wimp but she seemed more angry than scared.

My cat-based hexie (Ruth teh dinosaur~) was a first gen Oshie! So I think really any cat can do it. n__n

^ Ah yes<3 I believe SilverSheene's cat, Renn does it too and she's also an Oshie mix. Personally I think this behaviour is pretty cool, especially since it has turned out to be non breed related thing, unlike others... like the Meezer stretch etc.
So I've also heard that the catz will most likely show this behaviour in the playpen?=] That could be right, since I was in there yesterday (I almost never go there:x haha) when I saw Jemima doing that, but has anyone seen this happen in other playscenes too?=]

I most often play either in ECR's TV Room (custom playscene from mythicsilence) or in the playpen so I'm not sure which of the two they were in at the time.

I know Ruth only walked on the walls, ceiling, etc in the playroom. n-n I'd test it out but she isn't mine anymore! Did it all the time, though.
