Niagara Falls Adventure
2 Cats: Affectionate Whity & Aloof Orinji
Hi Vance,
Quite a stunning view of the falls. I’m glad you didn’t end up falling down.
It looks like you had a great time and laughed a lot.
I hope to go to Niagara Falls one day to see them, not to fall down, he he.

Hi Helena,
Yes the view is incredible and when you stand close to the wall right next to the falls it’s an awe inspiring experience.
I was surprised to be able to get that close.
We had a great time indeed and laughed our heads off not only at the falls but throughout my visit there and especially assembling a new table tennis table and playing the game for hours in the basement.
It was real cold outside.
If you can visit Niagara Falls, do it.
I’d go again in a heartbeat.

Hi Vance,
(Niagara Falls Adventure)
Now that’s a lot of cold water! It wouldn’t have been nice if your friend Carlos would have really made you tip over the wall.
An awesome place, the Falls, thank you for sharing.

Hi Jose,
I could see myself flying over the wall and ending up in the water when he pushed me but he also was holding on to me briefly making sure I wouldn’t do that. Carlos is a good friend and a lot of fund to be around.
The falls are awesome and have been tempted by a few people riding them inside a barrel. Crazy stuff.
Thanks for your comment.

Hi Vance, great videos, the first one is a bit much for me, I am afraid of heights, I could never go that close as you did! The second vid is more my case
Our cat is something in between the two you have, very affectionate as long as food / treats are involved and very aloof when nothing good to eat is offered. SY

Hi SY,
There is a wall there about 140 to 150 cm high so falling down, unless you want to get over it or somebody pushes you over, is virtually impossible.
My friend pushed me but he also made sure I didn’t fall. He actually pushed me but held on to me briefly.
I never thought I could get that close to the falls before I actually got there. It really is an awesome force of nature.
I like heights when I know it’s safe, like climbing up any viewing or church tower that has stairs leading up to the top.
But when it comes to unprotected heights I’m scared too.
I think your cat is affectionate and makes it look like it’s only because of food. Whity always looks for food too but keeps purring even if there’s none around. She keeps looking though. After she has her food she proceeds to clean herself, sometimes even on somebody’s lap. Orinji would never do that. After he eats he’s usually done with any human interaction. Only sometimes he comes to be touched and purrs very shortly before withdrawing back into his aloofness.
I thought that animals are always honest until I saw a dog that is always very friendly and is keen to be petted “pretend” to guard the house when his masters were around. He barked at me, then turned around to look at his masters who were about 8 meters away to make sure they noticed he was doing his job, then licked my hand and allowed me to pet him, then turned to look at his masters again and did some more barking at me.
Thanks for the comment.
Talk soon,
Vance

Hi Sally,
Thanks for the comment. Whity doesn’t drink when humans are around but since she goes outside a lot she no doubt drinks water there. Unlike many cats she dosn’t touch milk either.
I’m glad I could make you giggle.
