    This one is just beautiful. I’ve long thought a kitty hockey league would be really popular, if we could get skates on their hind paws.

  2. Queen of Dork says:

    That was really cute.

  3. Jennidy says:

    Well for one they’d make terrible goalies.

  4. chanpon says:

    The last kitty did a decent job on goal tending. The others need a lot more practice. :s

  5. BStrange says:

    I like the lurking spe-cat-ator in the rear right near the end.

  6. willoywind says:

    One of those kitties is a Kitler! :-)
    I love the cat at the beginning who just sits and watches it all unfold in front of him.

  7. Wend says:

    Ilove hoe the one was all curled up in the “goal” at the beginning. Just so typically a “cat” thing to do.

  8. Sporkles says:

    I do believe that sitting on top of the goal is not a FIFA-approved tactic.

  9. If kitties held their own World Cup, they’d call it the World Saucer (of Milk).

  10. victoreia says:

    Scoring could be problematic…

  11. Kar says:

    those Japanese. Scoring for the win in cute once more.

    BTW, I’m fascinated by that white spot on the ref’s tail.

  12. Martha in Washington says:

    Which do the kitties love more–the ball or the box?

  13. NT Mel says:

    Loving goalie-cat’s somersault after ref-cat slipped one it. hehe

  14. knittinkitten says:

    Love the kitteh soccer match! Did the one in the corner get send to the sidelines because of a foul? How is it they have four kitties and no cat hair on the floor? I have one and can’t sweep enough!

  15. kibblenibble says:

    I think two of them have short tails! ☺

  16. BStrange says:

    kibblenibble: I’m pretty sure the inventor of the Roomba must have owned cats, if that helps. :D Cleaning AND entertainment: http://cuteoverload.com/2008/11/22/kitty-roomba-in/

  17. BStrange says:

    erps. Brain transposed the names. that was “knittinkitten” not “kibblenibble”, sorry!

  18. kibblenibble says:

    BStrange, I can see how you could transpose our names. They’re very similar. BTW I think I need a Roomba. ;-)

  19. dixiechick says:

    That is just about the funniest, and cutest thing I have seen in a long time….I love cats. I have 2 myself but they don’t play kitty soccer! lol

  20. OMG that is brilliant! Somebody ought to do a proper football reporter narrative on that…. :)

  21. Tigress says:

    Hmmm. I’m a little rusty on my FIFA (Feline International Football Association) rules. Is it legal to frighten the opposing goalie out of their net?

  22. JV says:

    Agreed, this video needs that typical BBC commentary.

    “Kittay’s go’ the ball … he’s in a good persition ter shoo’ … he shoo’s … an’ ‘e scaws!!! Whatta grea’ goal!!!”

  23. Mary (the first) says:

    Loved at 1:10 when the goalie did a total 180 within the box! Great maneuver!

  24. Mary (the first) says:

    p.s. and I hate to admit it but I did not know what a vuvuzela is.. and now I do.. thank you!

  25. Bethama says:

    Now this, I would watch. It belongs on Animal Planet. We’ve got the Puppy Bowl, we need the Kitty Cup! (Though, “World Pup” has a far better ring to it. But, drat it, give cats a turn!)

  26. earlybird1 says:

    “Opposable thumb!! My kingdom for an opposable thumb!”

  27. bookmonstercats says:

    I’d rather watch the kittehs than the World Cup.

  28. carolina says:

    FINALLY!! A team sport I like. Especially the ball spotting
    BEHIND the goal as well as the backboard.
    Where can I get season tickets?

  29. 260Oakley says:

    Today’s floofball match has beeen canceled because one of the teams had to scratch.

  30. Biscuit Tin says:

    Cheating kitty moves the goal around 2:00. “Ho-hum, nothing to see here. I’m just going to rub against this [shove, shove] like any regular cat would do in a totally random and cat-like manner….”

  31. gryt says:

    Those kittehs have skillz!! I’m impressed!

  32. Space Cowgirl says:

    Goalkeeper Kitty is all “I’m not your goalie, I’m trying to take a nap here.”

  33. jen says:

    and i doubt there are no injuries when kittehs play soccer!

    (well, maybeh some hurt kitteh pride but thazzit.)

  34. TrixandSam says:

    @ Oakley shoots… and scores!!!!

    Love the kitties lurking behind the wall.

  35. Kitteh Cup .. Party On … Excellent.

    Plays air guitare and runs away!

  36. becx07 says:

    Oh my goodness, I love the background kitties just as much as the main players! Who knew one little ball could amuse so many?

  37. Zeki says:

    I’m always amazed by how Japanese houses can have all these cats and yet such clean floors.

  38. jujube says:

    Those are the best uniforms, EVAH!!!!

  39. Zoe says:

    Okay, I want to see this with the guys who make cats talk commentating. Seriously.

  40. Jill says:

    I wish this was a livestream webcam. I could watch those kitties all day long!

  41. Prof. Bleen says:

    I call offsides at 1:04.

  42. Welshcake says:

    If I cared about football (which I don’t) then I would probably say something about how it would benefit the England team if some of those kittehs played for us…

  43. sarag says:

    I like how at the beginning the goalie was the kitten with a slightly different colored coat.

  44. Melinda says:

    Infinitely more entertaining than the World Cup. Hey, they have the Puppy Bowl during the Super Bowl, how about this for World Cup?

  45. blair says:

    GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL-hab. For the lot of them.

  46. Christy says:

    Needs more Vuvuzela!

  47. Just what I need for a Monday morning! Hahahahahahaha! What’s with the talio bum-rings?

  48. fft5305 says:

    Damn, blair. Beat me to it…

  49. catmom says:

    they score!!!!!!

  50. Aimz says:

    I vote they make a tv channel of cats playing 24/7. It would be 10xs more entertaining then some of the trash they show on tv nowadays!

  51. Teresa says:

    :lol: I would just love to watch Kitty Soccer :lol:

    Hitler Cat scoooooooores!
