Can they jump?? Yes!!!!!
Trixie is a big jumper. She loves jumping and can jump pretty high. You've all seen those jack russell terriers and how they jump, right?? Well that is exactly what Trixie is like. She has a true terrior, oops I mean terrier spirit.
Scampers is a semi jumper, he can get on the couch and other things pretty easily. He can't make it on to my bet though. He likes to fly off the couch though!! He will leap with his legs stretching out and I think he really believes he is flying. He always jump up on the couch, gets to the highest point and then leaps off of it with his legs stretching out, he looks like a flying squirrel!!!
I have to keep a close eye on him because I don't want him to hurt himself.
Getting little stairs for him would be pointless. He jumps on the couch so he would not use the stairs to get on the couch. And he has a big fear of going down stairs, he can't seem to do it, he tumbles each time he tries.
That is why I have to keep the stairs gated because he can go upstairs but not down them and he would be stuck up there waiting for me to come get him.
Destiny is a whole different story. She is a huge climber/jumper. She is always climbing and jumping on things. She can even make the jump on to my bed which is really high and only Trixie and her can make the jump. She even jumped from my love seat to the couch which is a long jump and I coulden't believe she did it and with such an ease, none of my others have ever made that jump, not even Trixie. She just loves jumping and climbing, she is my little mountain goat.
She always has to be really high up, when on the couch she has to be on the highest point and it is the same with everything else she climbs on. Have you ever seen those mountain goats climging up on the rocks?? That is exactly what Destiny look like anid does all the time. She is little and I get worried because she is small but no matter how hard I try to stop her, she still does it.
Trixie and Destiny are both big jumpers but I would have to say that Destiny wins because Trixie is twice Destiny's size and Destiny can make the same jumps as Trixie even though she is half of Trixie's size.
