This Cat Can Jump 6 Feet – level 3
25-05-2023 15:00
A cat named Alley catapulted herself to the longest jump of 1.8 meters by a cat. This impressed the Guinness World Record adjudicators, who gave her the record.
Alley is a rescue cat who people found in an alleyway in Chicago with three other cats. Early on, owner and trainer Samantha Martin realized that the furry feline had a special talent.
She said that Alley started out as a frail cat and she has grown up to be strong and even a recording-holding cat. She quickly learned to jump from 0.6 meters to 1.8 meters right before she turned one year old.
Alley is so good that she was the star of Samantha’s Amazing Acro-Cats show, which tours around the United States.
Difficult words: adjudicator (person who adjudicates/makes a formal judgment), furry (covered with fur which is an animal’s fine soft hair), feline (a cat), frail (weak).

What other feats can Alley perform and will she attempt to break her own record?
