Does anybody remember those inspiring posters that were plastered all over our elementary school walls?
They often said things like:
"You can do anything!” You are limitless" “You miss 100% of the shots you don't take!”
Does that jolt your memory?
Well, the reason we bring it up is that those statements seem so generic up until that moment you find yourself exceeding your expectations.
The feeling of making a basket even though you never thought you had very good aim.
We wonder if cats have those same kinds of doubts about their athletic abilities because they seem to have much more confidence than us when it comes to jumping around.
But maybe that's simply because they're really really good at it.
Meet Finnegan

First of all, we need a moment of pawse for how cute this little kitten is.
But rest assured, he is much more than just a cutie. This kitty has some serious skills.
The TikTok account @finneganthekitten is dedicated to all of the hilarious shenanigans that Finnegan the gorgeous kitty gets into. But there was one video that showed some of his impeccable vertical skills as well.
Check out this video of Finnegan hopping up to catch a bug.
