    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    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.

    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.

    Hilarious!


    Luna and Lily, btw, were very successful in the 2004 Cat-Olympics, I think they're still holding the record in synchro-sleeping; but they're seniors now and have retired. Also, most likely Lily would be disqualified due to the extensive use of prohibited substances, namely catnip...

    My step-kitty Remy is working on her gold medal routine for The Great Escape. Two nights ago, she managed to 1) push open the (unlocked) deck door; 2) pull open the screen; 3) leap/scramble her way up the post to the roof and 4) dash downstairs to visit with the neighbors.

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

    I'm thinking that maybe Cassie should be a participant in the Claw Clipping Wiggle-Gymnastics event. She lets me clip her right back claws, but gets all squirmy when I try to do the left!

    (Seriously: She was front-paw declawed when I adopted her. As part of adoption I agreed that I would not have her back paws declawed. She used to get rid of them really well on her own by running kitty sprints, but as her age slows her down and she doesn't sprint, she needs the occasional pedicure.)

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    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!
