My mom has a cat that will slowly sink her stomach to the floor if a sock is placed on her.
She has another cat that loves to get tangled up in jackets or bags that are on the sofa. She will then find a way to skirm to the edge and flip on to her back on the floor to get free.
She used to have a cat that would sit on the second floor patio deck and jump off and catch (pounce on) birds in mid air. I never saw him miss a bird.
