Orbit - escape artist! by maggiemae

Orbit - escape artist!

Orbit is a black and white cat currently being looked after by the SPCA where I work on Thursdays. He can get out of his cage which has three catches on it, climb up here by the main door to the office, jiggle the door until it releases its catch and hey presto! The door opens. He then has fun in the office by climbing up the venetian blinds, scattering decor all over the floor and attacking other cats!

Three good things:
1. Orbit is not my cat
2. Book club today - lovely afternoon tea to look forward to!
3. Interesting talk to go to tonight in the Public library about a lady who taught me and dozens of others, ballet in the 1950's. A man has written a book about her.
I had to laugh at your #1 today! The triptych is a wonderful way to show Orbit in action.

I love these shots of Orbit the escape artist. I've had a number of cats over the years and some of them are very clever! How great that you volunteer at the SPCA! I hope Orbit gets a good home. You might get a chuckle out of this video:

It reminds of a scene from James Bond - a great cat and collage. I do hope someone takes him soon.
September 5th, 2013  
Cool captures. Quite sad to see them there though. Good on you for working there.
September 5th, 2013  
@tremerryn I do agree with you there, Ms T! Bond music would bring it to life!

@digitalrn I'd have to say, Rick, I call him a little devil!

I would never guess cats could do something like that! Very cool triptych. Hope you enjoyed your book club and the talk at the library.
September 5th, 2013  
He's obviously a great character!
September 5th, 2013  
That is an amazing houdini of a cat...no wonder he is in the rescue home..no one will be able to keep him in!!
Interesting talk & you might see lots of folk you know from way back!!

Brilliant, catch of his character, send him my way I'll look after him
September 6th, 2013  
He is actually a character and does love human company, Claire. @claireuk
September 6th, 2013  
@happypat I did actually but they look so OLD!
September 6th, 2013  
@yonnie thanks Yvonne, the first was a challenge as to who could talk the most (not my scene) and the next, got given a free book for my contribution to a small story of my experiences!
September 6th, 2013  
I love cats spirit of adventure, Orbit looks like a real character! Great triptych Maggie!

That cat needs an award for being so smart - but what a handful he would be!! Perhaps best for someone who is home most of the time. Enjoy your book club, mine is on the 15th of this month.
September 7th, 2013  
he must've inherited the soul of a restless dude. interesting book.
September 8th, 2013  
An amazing cat. I hope he gets a good home.
September 8th, 2013  
1.Orbit is not my cat! Bwahahahahahahahaha! You are so funny! He might be fun to have around though!
September 8th, 2013  
Too funny, what a great collage. Cats are so very smart.
September 10th, 2013  
Hubby just said he wants Orbit. He and our cat who is an escape artist would get along great.
September 10th, 2013  
Orbit looks like a very special kitty. He just wants to be free to roam
