What do cats do before it leaps?
Like humans before jumping, cats must transfer most of its weight to its rear /rear legs. Cats often first 'study' the height, especially if they have not jumped to that location before; you can see them holding back the energy they will need to make the jump; they may wiggle their rear ends during this set up and assessment of height. They may often appear to be laying on their back legs, as they deeply bend their knees (hocks). The thigh muscles contract, as they push off with their feet while straightening their knees (just like humans would do if trying to gain as much height as possible). The front paws/elbows assist in the jump but almost immediately, the front legs extend forward as the back legs extend backward, feet/toes "pointed" backward in mid-flight but flex their ankles so the feet plant flat on the object (bed, box, wall, whatever).Cats uncannily can usually hit "the mark" with relative ease. But cats often have false starts and failed jumps. As if uncertain, cats will often hunch down into a jump position and wiggle their rears multiple times or continuously for a minute or more as they "calculate" height and distance. Yet, even with extra planning, they often come up inches short of a "10" landing!
