:cool::cool:
If so I know some Found Hotel Cats who could take home the Gold:cool::cool::cool:
Fister joined the 2006 winter Olympics, but he is now a senior and not in the best athletic form, so I wonder what he would like to join. If there's a shouting contest, I'm pretty sure he has a good chance of winning. He tells me he is open for suggestions, though. :D
Of course, I could enter Borgeoise who I will be visiting soon. She is only 8 months old and extremely active. :eek:
This is Fister's entrance from 2006:
Kimba would definitely medal in the "High Jump from the Bookcase" event. Ming would do very well in "Couch Sleeping", and Mac would be a sure thing in the "50 Foot Dash to the Food Dish". :D
Cassie would like to join Ming in the couch sleeping event. Or the under-the-couch sleeping event.Quote:

Cat Badminton using a paw and a catnip mouse would be fun.
All 3 of mine would be good at the Ribbon Curl
and I suppose in addition to the synchronized sleeping, we should also have synchronized purring?
Considering some of the positions Groucho manages to get himself into, he definitely would be a contender in the kitty gymnastics events - both awake and sound asleep.
How about these for events:
Bath tub stopper hockey (you can substitute milk rings or bottle caps for the stopper)
Bath tub paw skating. Is real fun with ceramic coated tubs.
Best Box as a bed. Requirements are 1) no space left over and 2) no more than 10% of body overhang (0% is preferable)
Laser Bug chase - that cat must chase and not give up. Longest time requirements
Spook is entering the insect hunting competition this year. She is in top form and practicing every day! :rolleyes: :D
Franklin has been working hard to make the Vocalized Begging and Twist Tie Fetching Teams.
Chelsea is perfecting her choreographed bird watching routine and has added some lovely but difficult back-arching and tail-swishing elements.

Sophie is practicing Best Box as a Bed so hard! She wants the gold medal BADLY!Quote:

Snoopy also says she has the perfect outfit for our Belgian catletes

Zazou hasn't made up her mind yet....
Let's do it!
I call upon all the cats of the world to assemble
in London on July 27th for the games of the 2012 Cat Olympics..
These Games are open to all cats, from every corner of the globe.
They will be a showcase of the best, the fastest, most talented felines of our times.
The only change for these Games is the Olympic slogan.......
Higher, Faster, Sleepier.
-Pierre Cat-bertain
My girls will be there Richard!!
They have to show the cats of the world that Belgium is a super country for catsports!! They wanna win at least a few medals!!!!
Maya also wants to participate in the elevator-butt-event!!
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y14...ator-butt1.jpg
One week to go........
The participants have been arriving at Heathrow and the Olypmic Village.
------------------------------
Some of the Beach Events will be held at a special indoor facility.
Spectators are asked to bring their own scoopers!:D
Cassie would like to join Snoopy and Ming in the sleeping events. We think that precious Snoopy will take the gold! Cassie demonstrates her favorite spot, on the love seat, on the cushion sent by Auntie Helene (lvpets2002).

Edited to say- I have tried twice to re-size the picture so it is the same size as the photo of Maya in #18. I am not sure why Photobucket didn't save the changes. I'm sorry it is so huge!
Thye physical events will take place the first week of the games.
Sleeping events will take place during the second week after all their energy has been used up.;)
Two more days before the start of the Games...........
Hockey, Gymnastics (stretching/elevator butt/ribbon chasing) Soccer, Laser Chasing are on the agenda!
Great pics! Love the sleep on your human event. :love:Quote:

Pepper is overwhelmed with all of the various events, and decided to lay on the sidelines and just contemplate which ones she might decide to compete in.Attachment 54315
:love::love:
I bet that My Mikey Fuffy Tail would win the Olympic Whiskas Temptation Race, he is running at the speed of sound when he hears that shake, shake shake.:love::love:
OMG! Sophie will compete on that race too!Quote:

The prelims in Nipping, String chasing and temptation begging have been held.
This judge was awoken at 4:30 this morning for a training session for the Temptations begging.
The LFOOC (the El Fook-London Feline Olympic Organizing Committee) has loosened the rule regarding Catnip for the games....:)
The qualifying rounds for the laser pen chase were postphoned due to the human who didn't get new batteries for the competition.
--------------------------
The Olympic Village is packed with many catestants looking to swap different packages and flavors of Temptations.
--------------------------
The prelims for milk top hockey are tonight.
Cat napping seems to be a big event for today.
And there's a gold medal for tossing up hairballs..........
Ed D. Katz, USA! For tossing up a great multicolored puddle in the hallway!
Pinot has been competing in the water sports; artistic wizzing. She got a perfect score for her arc.
I'll have to get up to speed on posting our success in the Spunky Olympiad. But in the meantime, I have a photo that Ramanth liked and it showed on my wall.
enjoy! I wish it would show full size and not as a thumbnail.

Love it!Quote:

We're thinking of nominating her for "My Cat From Hell."
