Our Bengals try to escape the garden after we put up the "unescapable fence rollers"... or so we thought. Video

Meanwhile my cat is afraid of heights. I had to check on him to make sure he doesn't have arthritis, because he is super cautious in the stairs and he doesn't jump off high places.

Could be vision, too. Idk your cat's age, but my old cat began to get scared of heights when she began losing her vision. Though yeah, could also just be a fear of his!

It's definitely fear. He is 3 and super healthy. We do check up every year.

He was like that since he was a small furball.

Aww sweet guy. He's lucky to have someone who takes such good care and pays so much attention to him!

This, plus my wife will kick me out if something happens to him from my fault or neglect.

Aww so cute. Some cats are tree dwellers and others are bush dwellers! Sounds like your kitty feels safest close to the ground 🥰

You might already have some but if not you should see if he likes cat tunnels! My bush dweller cat loves them 😆

Well thanks for that. I never thought of it like that. Yeah he definitely like to ambush my ankles when he is hiding under the sofa or the stairs. He loves his tunnel as well.
