This week was the Westminster Kennel Dog Show. This dog show is so popular, it has higher ratings than hockey (then again, even test patterns out-rate hockey lately). It is time for other four-legged animals (i.e. CATS) to get equal time. As mentioned in the kitty thread last week, it is now time for the:
FIRST ANNUAL FR CAT SHOW !!
Here are the rules regarding categories.
1) Process started with four nominating categories and the first nominee for each category.
2) If you have a competing entry in any category, post the picture and mention what category it applies to.
3) If you want to start a new category, post a picture and mention the new category.
4) There is no limit regarding the number of new categories started.
Here are the rules regarding voting. We will use mostly democat voting rules for this contest.
5) You may vote as many times as you wish on any category.
6) Among four-legged creatures, only cats may vote. Dogs are not allowed to vote. Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah.
7) Polls will be open until next kitty thread posted next week. I will count the votes. There will be no lawsuits, no recounts, and no inspection of automatic voting machines. Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah.

CAT HAIKUS
Feel free!
bump
LOL
You never feed me.
Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.
That will sure show you.
You must scratch me there!
Yes, above my tail!
Behold, elevator butt.
The rule for today
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.
In deep sleep hear sound
cat vomit hairball somewhere
will find in morning.
Grace personified.
I leap into the window.
I meant to do that.
Blur of motion, then-
silence, me, a paper bag.
What is so funny?
You're always typing.
Well, let's see you ignore my
sitting on your hands.
My small cardboard box.
You cannot see me if I
can just hide my head.
Terrible battle.
I fought for hours. Come and see!
What's a term paper?
Small brave carnivores
Kill pine cones and mosquitoes
Fear vacuum cleaner
I want to be close
to you. Can I fit my head
inside your armpit?
Wanna go outside.
Oh, crap! Help! I got outside!
Let me back inside!
Oh no! Big One
has been trapped by newspaper!
Cat to the rescue!
Humans are so strange.
Mine lies still in bed, then screams
Claws are not that sharp.
Cats meow out of angst
"Thumbs! If only we had thumbs!
We could break so much!"
The Big Ones snore now
Every room is dark and cold
Time for "Cup Hockey"
We're almost equals
I purr to show I love you
Want to smell my butt?
My God, they are all so adorable! Thanks for this thread!
So many Kitties, so little time!!
I love kitty haiku. :) roffles
Is the last picture yours? It's nominated for Best Costume...
Me too. That's all I had till today. Today I got more by "borrowing" Jack Deth's to add to the meager collection.
(((((backhoe)))))
Taffy Gee is entitled to not care for cats very much. It doesn't diminish her in my eyes at all.
Sorry about your ISP difficulties. Adelphia has been giving us fits here in FL. Their "high-speed cable" is slower than dial-up at times and their tech support is non-existent. I guess it doesn't help that they've declared bankruptcy - LOL.
If your email address changes, please keep us informed.
That one looks exactly like my kitty I had in 1980! Sigh. He was a good cat, he fetched toys, came when he was called, walked with or without a leash and was a great watch cat.
