COPYCAT MATATA
"Copycat Matata" is mimicking all the habits and mannerisms of his mother Matahari, the good along with the bad. The good is that he is now totally "toilet trained" but the bad is that he wants to sit on the "Gallery Window Ledge", just like Matahari. Hope he doesn't fall off as his mother Matahari has a totally different "Body Configuration" compared to him, a short body, typical of a "persian cat". Persian cats are not good climbers unlike Siamese or other tall limbed cats.
On Sunday(20-9-2009) Matata did the ultimate mimickry of Matahari by jumping onto the gallery window ledge and thankfully I quickly took him from the ledge. In this photograph he is shown sitting in the money plant pots from where he jumped onto the gallery ledge above.
A slip from that ledge means a drop 5 floors below. NOW I UNDERSTAND THE HUMAN TERM,"COPY CAT".
