Merlin has a new antic

He can't yet quite leap up on the kitchen counter. Instead he leaps up and wipes his paw across the top edge and knocks down what ever his extended claws can capture. He's very proud of this because he even does this when I'm working in the kitchen.

Soon he will jump on counter and knock every little thing off. Mission accomplished.

Strategic placement of trash and a trash bin beneath the counter and next he'll want a paycheck.
