Meeting a "Highland Lynx" Cat

One of my sons loves cats... So it's only natural that the household he lives in includes two cats, "Biggie" and "Freed-Him."

"Freed-Him" was found in a shelter a number of years ago. He's my son's special buddy.

"Biggie" is a younger Highland Lynx cat, bred in Quebec.

Unusual are the breed's curly ears...

And naturally stubby tail.

When we first arrived to meet Biggie, he was asleep... But after a few minutes, he began showing us his stuff - leaping across the room from sofa to sofa. I don't know if all Highland Lynx jump as high or far as Biggie... but his skill was impressive!
