Cat-O-Lympics - Hiding Part 2

Bob: Glad we were able to take a break... who knew this event would be so popular. And we'd barely scratched the surface with the Under category and the always inventive freestyle.

Jim: Well Bob, hiding is a natural catlete behavior. I'm just glad we're not hosting any of the napping events.

Bob: That's for sure Jim! Now let’s get to the action with our first catlete Chilli of Cat with a Garden with the rug apparatus.
Jim: Well Bob, the judges should be very impressed with this strong performance. This could have almost been a disqualification, but the show of the tail and the obvious interest from sister Siena saved Chilli. Wait Bob, I’m getting word from the judges that a visible lump would also have been acceptable.

Bob: Wait? Just a visible lump is acceptable? How would they even know it was a cat?

Jim: Well Bob, apparently the lump does have to be cat-sized or cat-shaped. As demonstrated by the next competitor Katie from GloGirly.

Bob: Very impressive performance. I'm glad we were able to see the under the cover angle. I understand another competitor has taken the arena, let’s get right to the action with another under the sheet catlete Tim from Random Felines.

Jim: The classic toes and tail manuever! A smart choice in the blankie division. Here's Joey on the blankie division.

Bob: It's a bold Tail and Tock showing! Now for the opposite end of the catlete we have Cedar.
Jim: Look how how Cedar presses into the carpet to hide from Mr. Mouse.

Bob: Cedar is determined! Looks like Ernie is ready to answer this call to action.
Jim: Well Bob, this entry should get high marks for intention. Ernie of The Island Cats looks very determined here. Look at the degree of difficulty. He’s using the smallest rug in the competition!

Bob: I understand this is winning extra favor with the judges because we can see clearly that he’s preparing for a pounce. I think we know who Ernie is after…
Jim: It’s sister Zoey! A very impressive entry in the tunnel category! And look how she boldly goes with a two-third visible entry! But Ernie isn’t going to take that lying down!
Jim: I take it back Bob! Looks like he is going to take it lying down! Look at the cheek in this shot! I’d say it’s almost a full three-quarter cat showing here

Bob: A very bold choice with the full bed to hide under available to him.

Jim: Indeed Bob! And you’ll see his eyes show the clear surprise at being caught.Looks like Mario of Mario  Da Cat is not going to let that move go unchallenged.
Bob: It's another Toes and Tail, and this time the kitty is almost visible through the lace. Looks like little Chilli has him on the ropes with this next move!
Jim: Holy Cod Bob! Look at the extra-cute style points here! Full toe exposure! And look at that little nose! But wait, she’s not even done!
Bob: Chilli’s really pushing this event to the limit! It’s a true “In Your Face” maneuver!

Jim: This little catlete is a real competitor! And here's another strong little catlete answering the challenge,
                                                                                                                   
Bob: But I think Ayla of Mark's Mews is not going to let that call to action go unanswered.
Jim: And Ayla puts in a strong final performance! I think we see the reason clearly here! I was wrong, looks like there is another purrformance.
Bob: Jim, I'm confused here... is this a two-tailed catlete?

Jim: No Bob! I'm getting word there is a rarely seen, double-hide using the Cabinet apparatus from Truffle and Brulee of Sweet Purrfections.

Jim:Whew Bob! This has been a real claw-biter! I'm glad all the participants are getting gold!!
