One of my parents little shits does that. He's not allowed on the kitchen counter, but is allowed on a bar area slightly higher. He lays there, and you can see how his paw gets stretched down further and further, until it hovers millimeters above the counter. Sometimes he touches it, and gets very offended when told off. Then the paw goes back up, and the lowering starts all over.

"I'm technically still on the barstool, so it's allowed."

So cute!

cat lawyers are proud

That counter looks like a nice cool place to lay when it's hot

She's well seated on the barstool and not on the counter. I'll allow it! o3o

Chicken is a Bird, and Birds is for Cats. Checkmate.

I have a dog who is this way.

Roxy is living up to her heritage. Her ancestors are proud.

Just like one of mine. She looks a lot like Roxy, but she's more grey with just a little brown.

Does Roxy also need to knock over any cup, glass, can or bottle she can find?
