CAT-O-LYMPICS Results Recap




Hi everyone, Katie here.

Well the events have come to a close. It's been quite a week! A special thank mew to Jim, Bob and Fin for their comprehensive daily updates and commentaries.

I have to admit, the ice skating moments are my favorites. As much as I loved getting wrapped up in the American flag with Shaun, you just can't beat a pair of shiny white skates with tassels. Just take a peek at some of my "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!" highlights:

What??? Glogirly, did I hear you correctly? There was never a REAL competition? What??? There are no LOSERS, just WINNERS? What do you mean EVERYONE gets an award? But, but... what about my freestyle ski acrobatics? What about my triple toe loop? What about my buddy, Shaun White and the half pipe? The curling, the bobsledding, the luging?

Well that's a fine how-do-you-do.

I had all my endorsements lined up too. I'm on a first name basis with Arm & Hammer. And the Meow Mix people are chomping at the bit.


This could have been my Special Olympian Edition Super Scoop Box.




And here I am on what could have been the
Meow Mix Think Like An Olympian Cat Red Carpet.



Fine.



I'll get my own stinkin' medals.

Live from Minneapolis, this is Katie. Over and out.

CAT-O-LYMPICS Day Six



Hi everyone, Katie here.

Bet you didn't expect Day Six now did you! There are just too many amazing Olympian moments for me to squeeze into five short days. And because I am a young and hip cat, I just had to include snowboarding.


That's me doing the half pipe above. I know, awesome form.



Whoooooaaaa! Most cats catch mice.
I catch air. Major air.



Here's me and my good friend, Shaun White.
I'm pretty sure he's going to dedicate his gold medal to me.



Enjoy the events today everyone! I want to give another special shout out to my good friend Fin from Housecat Confidential. Finny created the Cat-O-Lympics venue for us. And a special thank you to YOU for joining me this week for "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!"

Glogirly is coming home from the frozen Floridian tundra tonight. I'm expecting tons of treats, gifts and attention. ...not to mention a pile of gold medals. The cat sitter is still alive, although shaken.

Still alive (and alone for a few more hours) from Minneapolis, this is Katie. Over and out.

CAT-O-LYMPICS Day Five




Hi everyone, Katie here.

Well it's day five! I bet you've been wondering what could possibly top yesterday's figure skating. Why sledding of course! Doesn't matter if it's the luge, the bobsled or the townhouse hardwood floor...
I can slip, slide and sled with the best of them.



Here I am in my personalized bobsled.
I'm an excellent driver.



And the luge... Wheeeeeeeeeee!




After my sledding, I built a snow sculpture honoring the week's festivities. I know, I know... you didn't realize I'm a sculptor.
Just full of surprises here.
(Gloman says I'm full of something else.)


Enjoy the events today everyone! I want to give another special shout out to my good friend Fin from Housecat Confidential. Finny created the Cat-O-Lympics venue for us. And a special thank you to YOU for joining me this week for "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!"

Glogirly says she's leaving the frozen Florida tundra soon. That means I've only got a couple more days to hiss at the cat sitter. ...now if only THAT were an Olympic event!

CAT-O-LYMPICS Day Four



Hi everyone, Katie here.

I know you've been anxiously awaiting my Olympic skating debut. What will Katie wear? What jumps will she perform? Will she go classical or modern? Will she dominate the short program, the long program or the free skate? Will she grant an exclusive interview to Scott Hamilton?


Sources close to Katie indicate she's still considering
an exclusive sit down with Hamilton.


I wowed the judges with each of my programs. Although skiing is exhilarating, hockey exciting and curling so, well, curly... I must say it's figure skating that moves me. It allows me to tap into my inner performance artist and tell a story through movement and athletic grace.



I'm graceful as a ballerina during the long program.
My marabou feathers add a distinct yet
delicate femininity to my performance.
Plus they make great toys.



I nail the compulsory moves here.
Eye contact with the judges is key.



Modern, dramatic and completely Katie.
The Free Skate is my swan song.


Enjoy the events today everyone! I want to give another special shout out to my good friend Finny over at Housecat Confidential for creating the Cat-O-Lympics venue. Glogirly is still in freezing Florida, but I plan on being back tomorrow with more "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!" Olympian photos.

CAT-O-LYMPICS Day Two



Hi everyone, Katie here.

Welcome to the "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!" Photo Event, currently in progress. Today I'm playing ice hockey. This is no ordinary ice cube on the kitchen floor nonsense. This is the real deal.

Glogirly is still galavanting around Florida so we are communicating remotely to piece together my blog. I'm concerned she'll screw it all up. Girls, you know.



Ok Glogirly: Put the action shot of me guarding the goal HERE.
Proof that I can be in two, three, even four places at once.
Only a cat could pull this off.


GG: Now put my cool hockey fashion shot here.
Check out this great outfit.
Nice pads, I know. Looks like I've been working out.




Glogirly: Put the moody, out of focus, net shot here.
Proof that even hockey can be artistic.


Enjoy the events today everyone! I hope to be back tomorrow with more "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!" Olympian photos!

CAT-O-LYMPICS Day One



Hi everyone, Katie here.

Well Glogirly is off visiting Florida now. I bet she is wishing she had my black & white fur coat!

It's CAT-O-LYMPICS week! I'm so excited that my friend Fin over at Housecat Confidential is hosting this big event. As you know, I snuck some of my favorite "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!" photos onto Glogirly's laptop before she left town. So let's just see if she gets this right.


Hey Glogirly: Put the cool photo of me catching some big air in the freestyle ski competition HERE. I'm an excellent freestyle air catcher.



Glogirly: Ok now, this is where I want my apres ski shot.
Don't screw it up.



Enjoy the events today everyone! I hope to be back with more "HOW-DID-KATIE-DO-THAT!" Olympian photos!
