Spider Cat! Moggie that can walk down the side of a fridge becomes an internet sensation



As every cat lover knows, pets can do some amazing things. But not many can defy gravity, like Piggy here.

She has been nicknamed Spidercat for her party trick of walking head-first down the gap between her owners’ fridge and the wall.

The seven-year-old has become an internet sensation after video of her antics was posted on YouTube, being viewed nearly 800,000 times.

What a cutie! Piggy eyes the camera before taking the plunge Going, going...The fearless feline stares over the edge of the fridge for a second

Owners Danielle Mondin says her cat repeats the trick every day

It shows the cat atop the fridge, peering down the gap before setting off. Half way down she pauses for a casual look around before continuing to the floor.

Owners Danielle Mondin and her fiance Paul Hickson, both 29, from Wymondham near Norwich, say she does it every day.



Miss Mondin said: ‘We don’t know how or why Piggy does it or what comes into her head’, adding that otherwise she was a ‘normal domestic cat’.

The British Mountaineering Council said Piggy appeared to be chimneying, where climbers put their back against one side of a crack and their feet against the other and edge themselves up or down.
