Here is Charlie walking down our fence using his magnetic boots, which are cleverly made to resemble his natural paws. He's a pretty clever cat.

Impressive! but we knew he is as smart as can be. Does he also perform this magic coming down trees head-first? Given their environment, he & Hilbert may have no need of trees when they can travel on those fences.
This assumes this hasn't been photoshopped or simply turned horizontally
Nope, it's the real deal.
A well captured shot that...truly represents both Charlie and the abilities of you technology! Frozen motion indeed!
Is Charlie even able to move all four feet onto a wood wall - without slipping - long enough for a shot like that? I didn't actually think that Kevin Drum would photoshop the cats, & the inclusion of the leaves, blossoms, & chair top made a switch from landscape to portrait impossible.
But because cats are known for backing down rather than going back down headfirst, apparently because their claws get stuck & can get ripped off, they wind up like my Hopper lookalike from years ago.
She was abandoned, was found in a high-forking tulip tree & I couldn't lure her down with food, water, & desperate entreaties for two days. As I was leaving for work on the third day, a Humane Society volunteers finally came, managing by some miracle to sling a rope & cat carrier across the branch.
.My neighbor agreed to hold the rescued cat until I got home from work, & I had another cat, whom I named Allegra.
So I hope that you can understand why I might be able to believe in "miracles"" rather than some stop-motion technology..
Not just magnetic. But “magnetic” to wood. Now that’s impressive! Science!
