A Leap to New Heights

I scrambled to the very edge of the dining table, peering down at the wide chasm between the tabletop and the nearest chair. Spreading my wings with an energetic flutter, I gathered all the spring in my hind legs and lunged across the gap! My claws caught the curved wooden crest of the chair back with a soft scrape, swaying slightly as I balanced. From up here, the entire floor stretched out below me, giving me a whole new view of the room.
