But competitive cheer certainly is a sport. Or was when I was in college.

So if I go down there at one, I should say, "I hear you have an awesome dog"?

Aren't speech bubble toys for cats kind of redundant? all the cats I've ever known have been able to let you know what they think just fine.
It's not about the cat expressing itself; it's about me laughing at what I can make the cat "say."
