Fans, proud parents and spectators have filed into the Olympic Stadium for the Opening Ceremonies of the First EVER Winter Cat-olympics..

The wait is over.....it's time to particpate, compete and play....

The lights are lowered and crowd is hushed......a spot light illuminates the entrance and

The Pet Talk Olympic banner makes it's entrance!!!




The crowd comes to it's feet and the thundering applause is deafening!!!

As the Olympic flag makes its way around the edge of the stadium the
Pettalkville flag makes it's entrance!!




If it is possible the noise has grown louder- the spectators are delerious!!



(Before anything else happens I want to thank, from the bottom of my heart,
Koxka, Killearn Kitties and Randi for doing all the graphic work! They truly have done the hardest part...I can BS....but it's their work that will add the pictures to the text!!)

[Sus]

Well, hello there...!!

Wonder if anyone remember us?? We have been very busy, Bella and I (and stressed out and ill and busy again, actually! ) but we don't want to let Randi and Fister down on this great event!

Bella would like to offer her services as a referee in any discipline you would want since nothing - absolutely nothing - will escape her unflinching eyes. Her capacity of staring is quite awesome, and she usually succeeds in making new acquaintances uneasy...

Here is the picture to prove it!



So how about it? Are we in??

Good luck to everybody!

Love,
Sus
