Shadow may be getting too big for the space under the coffee table, but our little genius has found a way around that.
When we brought him home four weeks ago, the first place Shadow gravitated was the space under the living room coffee table. I suspect it felt cozy and safe. (See photo at right, taken before he made me remove the rug.)
He weighed less than 13 pounds and was small enough to fit under that table and all the kitchen chairs at the time.

Now almost double the size, he hasn't quite figured out why it's so much harder to crawl under these things. But as you can see above, last weekend (to my shock and guilty amusement) he discovered that there are also some advantages to his new height! (Though with a glass pane on top of the table, he won't be doing that again!)
Need more Shadow?
He started doing that when I was taking care of him. I think it was because when we brought him to our house and put him in the kitchen the island was there at first and he since the shelf was much lower he realized he could get up and walk on it. And then we I brought him back to your house he decided to test the same principle on the coffee table and, well, there you go...
