go to the

CATLANTA CATLYMPIC GAMES

When thuh hoomins had their Olympic Games in Atlanta, kitties around the world realized that lots of the best events were being totally ignored. The kitties on r.p.c. (rec.pets.cats) decided to hold the Catlanta Catlympics in conjunction with the hoomin Olympics, with competition in official kitty events. Boris, KCOG (Kitty Committee for the Olympic Games) organized everything brilliantly. There were spectacular Opening Ceremonies with a stunning pyrotechnical display coordinated by Shu and Spike. (Good thing the Atlanta hoomins were going to tear down that old Fulton stadium anyway -- we saved them the effort!) And then for three weeks there were exciting kitty competitions in such events as Marathon Napping, Synchronized Sleeping, Bunny Pouncing, Smurgling, Hiding, Mad Dash, Hoomin Toppling, Llama Tipping (a furry speshulized event), Litter Throwing, The Great Fork Lift (anuther furry speshulized event!), Nipnastics, Puking, Rottweiler Fighting, and Cowardice & Self-Imposed Victimization.

Thuh kitty medals awarded were much nicer than their hoomin equivalents: instead of Bronze we had Trout, instead of Silfur we had Toona, and instead of Gold we had Sammun! At the end of the whole Catlanta Games, there were wonderful award ceremonies that left a liddle tear in efurry kitty's eye (and a liddle fish on efurry kitty's plate!).

All of us at Bitterroot Manor won medals and we kept a scrapbuk of our performances, so you can turn the page for commentators' reports of Ceilidh and Skye's salmon-winning Synchronized Sleeping entry, and Tally's tuna-winning Smurgling. Then you can go to the Closing Ceremonies, where the medals were awarded. Or if you don't haf time now, you can return to our Bitterroot Manor homepage or look at another page in our scrapbook.
