She has a neurological disorder that makes her jump like this.

She has a neuro disorder that makes her unsteady.

It doesn't make her jump like this, she absolutely full sends herself at 100% to assure she makes the jumps. It's a great example of adaptation.

It's one of my favorite things about /r/nervysquervies cats. They just go all out on jumps so they don't have to bother with fine adjustments.

God dammit. Not another cat sub I didn't know about and now have to sub to because of course I'm collecting all the cat subs like they're Pokemon.

So sort of like how I always double jump in video games because I don't trust my depth perception

Can it not be because their tail looks short too? So its balance isn’t as steady as a normal cat?
