Peruvian surfing cat is making waves - Telegraph

Domingo Pianezzi, of Lima, Peru, believes that his small cat Nicolasa enjoys catching tubes almost as much as catching mice.This unexpected feline pastime was apparently discovered when Domingo took Nicolasa to Lima’s San Bartolo beach and the young moggy leapt on board.

While the popular myth may have it that cats can’t stand water, Nicolasa seems quite content on the open waves.

… However, an alternative theory might be that, since once she is out on the water the only dry place is on top of the surfboard, Nicolasa is not so much surfing as hanging on like grim death.

…Or I could just suck your breath out next time you fall asleep.

Agility contests for cats? It’s purr for the course - USATODAY.com

They work their way through a daunting course of tunnels, jumping and weaving through poles. All on cue. Sort of.

But whatever they decide to do, it’s more than most normal-thinking people would expect.

For these animal athletes are cats, doing their owners’ bidding — more or less — in competitions patterned after canine agility contests.

The felines are enticed, cajoled and sometimes just released like bullets to maneuver over or through six to 14 obstacles. The best make it in about 10 seconds or so; the less eager take, well, a few minutes.
