I just discovered that there is a cat show this weekend near my home, and that it will feature an obstacle course (described as a series of "agility trials"). This might be worth seeing. It's hard to picture.

Yes, cats can run an obstacle course!  For the past decade, the sport of dog agility has taken the country by storm.  Dogs are leaping over hurdles, caroming around weave poles and diving through tunnels.  Cats will get their chance on Saturday and Sunday.  The course will include tunnels, hoops, weave poles, stair steps and low, medium and high hurdles.  Expect some cats to zoom through the course in just seconds.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.phoenixvillenews.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=20088431&BRD=1673&PAG=461&dept_id=17915&rfi=6"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.phoenixvillenews.com/img/48C64563-FCAF-4D2C-A0BE-A3C8094015CA" alt="Tess jumps through a hoop after leaping over a fence in a demonstration of her athletic ability and agility." /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.phoenixvillenews.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=20088431&BRD=1673&PAG=461&dept_id=17915&rfi=6"><FONT size="-2" face="arial,helvetica" color="Black">
