I'm not entirely sure of the chain of events but somehow my incredibly clumsy cat (aren't cats supposed to be graceful?) managed to knock a very stable stack of dishes off of a very safe section of counter, breaking two of them and spreading shattered porcelain all over the kitchen floor.
I was in the bathroom starting the shower. I heard dishes clattering then I heard dishes falling anddishes breaking. When I got out to the kitchen I saw:
That the four dishes that had been on the counter were now on the floor. Two of them broken. The freezer door was open. A basket which had been on top of the fridge was on the floor with the dishes.
Lovely.
So, either:
She used the stack of dishes as a jumping-off point to get up onto the refrigerator and then slipped when the dishes fell, opening the freezer and taking the basket down with her as she fell.
OR
She got up to the fridge without a problem, tried to stand on the basket to get up onto the cabinets behind the fridge, slipped on that, which opened the door and she landed on the dishes which made both her and them fall.
Either way, it means I have to wear shoes in the kitchen until I have a chance to mop, vacuum, and mop again. Those bits of porcelain are TINY.
