TranscriptionA picture of a tortoiseshell cat lying on a step of a staircase. The staircase is covered with carpet that matches the cat’s coat color, making the cat blend in completely. Caption reads “I almost trip over her every time I go up the stairs.”

Kitty needs a high viz vest when operating on those stairs

She’s in her ancestral environment, or at least a good approximation of it.

My orange cat loves to do this on the stairs, I've almost stepped on him multiple times going down, and consequently have almost fallen down the stairs each time. Thankfully I've caught myself each time but I might not one day
