So basically when cats fall down, their ears go “o shit we boutta die” and they sorta shift, like how cat’s ears sorta move when they hear something that triggers their body into twisting, sorta, and their legs prep for landing rrly quickly, since its an instinct that’s why the “9 lives” joke is a thing, cus they always seem to land on their legs ofc its not a guarantee, sometimes they fail lol but bc of how flexible their spines are, so its ok, its the height that rrly matters
