This is Zarniwoop: Multiple kilos of pure feline savant-idiocy – possibly the most human-centred cat I've ever known, and the most prodigious climber and leaper – this cat has his own personal gravity control: he'll fire himself into the air on a ballistic trajectory then, at apogee, he simply switches off gravity so that he can hang around for a while to adjust re-entry parameters, fine-tune his landing zone and then simply drop in, sans fuss, sans bother. His favourite trick is to accelerate hard along the hall, through the open door of my office, launching himself at me from the threshold, about 3m from my chair: I'm then confronted with the site of an incoming giant economy-size Maine Coon, travelling at about eye height and at 30kph or thereabouts. There is only one thing to do: stay absolutely still – I don't even feel him land on me, save for the sudden dampness as my nose gets washed in greeting.
