I loved this cat-herding catastrophe. Your descriptions of the cats were wonderful, as was the general chaos that ensued once the starting gun was fired. I ended up coming in second place after staving off the lead cat with a few well-placed cucumbers.
I don't know how you would even polish this. Longer race-courses? A curved track? More cats? Maybe a lil' tickler with a long recharge time, or a laser pointer.
But that said, y'all did great work with this. Well done!
