Wonderful writing, Melissa! I think Mir is practising to enter the
Russian Blue team. Caliban wonders if there's a Tabby team he could
enter. He was at training camp last month, and became quite the expert
pouncer on grasshoppers, no less. Much harder to pounce on than a tassel.

I think they could use her! She seems to have a better temperament than
Boris.

Well, first of all, Caliban has to the "Feed Me, Can't You See I'm Starving?"
competition.

He could also compete in Creative Relaxing, which might earn him points
for the having greatest amount of his weight not supported by anything, while
not falling. (We won't say anything about his little "dip" last year.)

My young Buzzy-cat could have won an Olympic prize this morning for his
incredible leaping performance with a tub stopper. I wish I had it on video!

Nina and Cesca cordially invite Caliban to join THEIR Tabby Pouncing
Team. =o) They both think he's a very handsome fellow. And after
pouncing on grasshoppers, they're sure he'll be an assett to the
team. True, insects that hop are a lot more challenging than tassels,
but indoor pouncing IS more controlled, you know. =o)

If there's a black cat team Sarsi would like to be in it-she trains
daily with fether onna stick and some of her pouncing is spectacular-
she got it in mid air last night
