Although these two contestants are no longer available for competition, I do believe they deserve an honorable mention....

This thread is absolutely delightful! Just now seeing it, as I've been taking a bit of a PC break!;)
And now a report from the sofa high jump competition.....
Announcer 1: Coming up on his last attempt at 3 feet we have the American competitor, Edward D Katz..
Announcer 2: Katz is from Los Angeles, California-he has made it known that he HAS practiced his specialty for 5 years.
1: Why, that's almost 35 in human years!!!
2: Don't you know it!!
1: Katz begins his approach to the arm and jumps....
2: WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT!!
1: I don't believe it, I JUST DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!
2: Ladies and gentleman I think we had an Olympic FIRST!!!
1: The crowd is going WILD......
2: This is UNBELIEVEABLE
1: I think the pressure FINALLY got to him.....
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...1/fa37a217.jpg
The judges disqualify Katz for not finishing his leap!!!
:eek:
How cute!!!! Those pics are all great! hehehe
And, of course, there's the toy chase:

Reuters Aug 10, 2004
Pet Talk Catalympics Have Opened.
Dateline-Internet, All Across the World.
The Pet Talk Olympics officially opened today with the
Parade of Kittens (Cats). Since the participants have been resting and napping in order to marshall all their strength for the upcoming Games, there wasn't much of a parade. They all sauntered in at their leisure.
Any cat owner will tell you that getting a cat to compete is a major
accomplishment-getting them to march into the stadium, in order, is downright impossible.
Some of the events to be contested for the next two weeks, or however long the participants interest lasts, are new in the world of cat-letics.
The only departure from the Hooman Olympics is that every cat will receive a purrfect 10 score and a gold medal. This eliminates a judging scandal like those pesky skating judges tried to pull off a few years ago in Utah.
I see the Olympic Flame has been lit.......Or is that a laser pointer??
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!
oh my goodness!!! look at all these talented mew mews! LOVED all the photos!!
now Im off to search for some of my own crazy cats LOL
Yahoo!
".. a girl can never have too much gold .." Edwina, I knew you wouldn't disapoint!
".. Olympic flame or a laser?.." oh this is too much fun :D
So, here we have all the glorious teams that have joined the cat-olympic games in Athens so far:

I hope I haven't left anyone out...
@csanchezveloso: Which country will Antenita represent? I couldn't tell it from your profile... :o
Kirsten
...and here are the medals our kitties can get, especially designed for the cat-olympics:

Wonder if anyone has gold already... :D
I'm pretty sure the stunning American meowing team has got one already! They're looking really impressive!! :D
Kirsten
I found two events to enter Leroy in... he may be a little young, but he can always be an alternate!!!
Here he is with his sparing partner Frosty practicing his wrestling moves:
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...9/f78aad22.jpg
And here he is polishing his soccer skills!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...e/f78aad38.jpg
Luna and Lily have decided to go for a medal in wrestling also:

Kirste
All of the photos are so great! I love the team banners, too. Richard, you are too funny for words. Let's see who can chase that laser pointer the fastest.
Day One.
All the athletes not all arrived yet.
The Canadians are still waiting for more athletes to show.
The European teams looks strong. Viewing the team photos
you can see the fire in their eyes.
The Brits, Danes and Germans all have representatives ready to take advantage of the fact that they have the home field advantage for the Games.
The American team has a large contingent in attendance, this year playing as a visiting team.
----------------------------------------
The medals were unveiled at a special ceremony during the opening ceremonies.
The circular medals were designed with a simplistic and tasteful
rendition of a cat in the "Are YOU talking to ME?" pose.
One athlete was over heard to say, "I am going to treat MY medals like cat toys,
When I get home, I'll leave all my medals all over the floor just to remind my owner who is in charge ...."
--------------------------------------------
We'll try to stay on top of all the Games and try to bring you
the latest scores. Our reporters will follow the same schedule as the competitors.
"Yawn.......Is it time to wake up and do something?"
Kirsten I love the medals. I hope it doesn't show your bias that I can't see the US team:D
I think we are strong in wrestling and synchronized. Not so strong in meowing and stuffy wrestling and door balancing:D
You cannot see the US-team, Barbara? :confused: Well, it should show up, I can see it.
Richard, thanks for keeping us updated on the games! :)
Besides, Lily has decided to also join the balancing contest now:

Oops!!
Edited because I have checked the US-team's url and there was indeed a typo. No idea why I was able to see the picture first, but when I hit reload, it has disappeared.... Now it should be back.
I do apologize for this!! Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Barbara! :o

Great pics everyone! there are alot of excellent entries for the catolympics.
Kirsten- PLEASE add Mishka to Team Canada ..it looks like we're in dire need of teammates!
( possibly in the gymnastics dyscipline - he did wiggle out of the sweater in record time - backwards!)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...aissweater.jpg
:D :D :D Mishka's sweater photo is a DELIGHT. He (she? my memory's going) should win a gold for all around cuteness!
P.S. Are there no down under kit-kats representing their countries this time?
Well I just got done looking at all the athletes and they all look they're in great shape:D
I love this thread!
Wow -this is so exciting!
I think Lily will get the most gold from our team. She's so versatile:D
Looks like the US are also very strong in stretching and yawning.
I am glad Mishka (the Canadian Wiggling champion) is re-inforcing the smaller nations:D
That's a gold medal for sure! :eek: :eek: :eek:
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...47d80000001610
This has got to be one of my favorite threads! How cute and all these pictures are FANTASTIC! I love the kitty olympics! A couple of my brats think they should have a shot at a medal.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...0/fa8e2b0b.jpg
Good luck everybody!!!
Toby would like to join Canadian Team and take part in the Vertical Twist competition!
http://www.nebulaart.com/pix/tobystretch.jpg
:D
Sister Lily would like to be part of the competition, team undecided but she's been doing lots of stretches in preparation for the big games!
http://www.nebulaart.com/pix/lilypic.jpg
LOL!!! This is so entertaining!!!!! :D :D :D
So there are three athlets in the Canadian team now, now all Lily has to do is to decide for which country she would like to compete (guess a dual citizenship isn't always easy to handle! ;))
Mishka is also in the Canadian team now, already introducing the new official shirt!!
The US-teams has also been bolstered up with a few more stunning and good-looking athlets! :) The US-Yawning team will be very strong this year, same goes for gymnastics!!
Kirsten
Lily has thought, since the US-boys and girls are dominating the yawning competition that much, a little bit of competition won't hurt: :D
