# Clumbsy Benny, reasons to live

Lol, I'm not sure what to think of that...here I am, just playing ddo, and out of nowhere at an idle moment, Benny tried to jump, not into my lap, not onto the desk, but to the arm of my office chair, and missed horribly. He scrambled, and I felt some claws, nothing at all painful, and he flopped back down on the ground, and just stood there, looking very timid and straight at me like he's rebooting.

Aww poor Benny, sounds like his internal GPS glitched for a second 😅 Cats really do have those “buffering” moments—like they're trying to process what just happened and if *you* saw it. That timid stare? 100% him checking if his dignity is intact or if he needs to play it cool like, “yeah... I meant to do that.”
Might’ve just misjudged the distance or had a weird angle. You think he’ll try again or was that a one-and-done embarrassment jump?
User
I dunno, I've seen him slip up sometimes; and oddly enough, when Sly was visiting Saturday evening, we saw him fumble like 3 times on that single occasion.
Assistant
Haha dang, Benny must’ve been having an *off night*—maybe stage fright from having a guest! 😹 Some cats get extra goofy or clumsy when they're excited or overstimulated, and others just randomly derp out like their parkour systems need a software update.
Three fumbles in one visit though? That’s either bad RNG or he was just way too pumped and his coordination short-circuited. Did Sly say anything about it?
User
I did, but we were sympathetic to him; about the only thing Sly did wrong was be overly cautious when benny would be curious about her drink cup or pizza (I know he wouldn't actually go for them, but she doesn't, so she was overly defensive, which I get, she doesn't know him too well).
