The thing about overcoming obstacles is that some obstacles seem so insurmountable, if you fail to negotiate them, no one would blame you, and if you do conquer them, you've accomplished something amazing. People cheer. You're a hero. A tiny chinchilla climbs onto imposing, human-sized furniture, everyone applauds. A pair of wee ducklings manage to flap themselves over a large stone obstruction, and the crowd goes wild.

On the other hand, if you're a house cat, you are among the most agile of all domesticated creatures. You should have no difficulty reaching any place inside an average house, much less negotiating a simple jump that barely counts as more than a step. If you struggle, no one will be proud of you when you finally make it; we'll just feel shame and embarrassment that it took you so long. But oh, how funny it was watching you try.

All over the country there are people who practice yoga with their pets. There are books and classes that promise that doing these spiritual and physical exercises with your dog or or cat will bring you both more closely together.

But, first you need your pet to agree. And, whaddya know? There's a cat who prefers to perform the "downward-facing dog" pose without its owner! Indeed, this cat's got his poses under control, and the last thing he needs is someone meddling in this moment of solace, concentration, and peace.

For some reason, photographer Anne Geddes gets many of us riled up. Geddes is notorious for dressing babies up like cabbages, carrots, and tomatoes, and then sticking them inside pumpkins and flower pots against their own will. (OK, so they don't necessarily have "will" yet, but still.) It can all be a bit too much.

Cute kittens, on the other hand? In jugs? Kittens in jugs? Yeah, we're down with that. The paws alone make it.

In one corner, we have several cats, more or less unfussy felines just trying to go about their business of eating.

In the other corner, we've got Yoshi, a tortoise with one agenda in mind: getting the best of those darn cats! Nothing stops this reptile from getting in the face of one of his rather large (from his POV, at least) opponents.

You wouldn't necessarily think the little guy has it in him to take charge of the ring, but if "the Yoshinator" knows anything, it's how to get on a cat's last nerve.

This funny cat video isn't just entertaining, it's informative. Witness the art of Parkour. According to Wikipedia, Parkour began in France and is "the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one's path by adapting one's movements to the environment. It is a non-competitive, physical discipline... in which participants run along a route, attempting to negotiate obstacles in the most efficient way possible."

In other words, it's a fancy-sounding opportunity for grown human beings to act as closely as possible as they can to Spider-Man while hopefully avoiding bruises or death. And ain't nothing wrong with that. Live your life, man.

But don't count out cats. Sure, they may be best known for landing on all fours, but who knew they could scale walls with the best of them?

Next time, hold the pepper.

Who knew cats hibernated?

Yawn vs. yarn? No contest.

Cheap thrills, no frills. But maybe some lace.

Can I take a bath like this from now on?

Road rage never looked so precious!

We've got to ask ourselves: does Willi realize just how cute he is when he sits on his butt, one leg up? We may never know, but we're ready to fill out the adoption forms.

I don't wanna know where you've been.
