Just saw this advertised on TV.  It will air just before the Super Bowl football game here in the U.S. on February 2.  I'm not into football, but might have to watch the Kitten Bowl !!

About Kitten Bowl 2014 
Sunday, February 2 at 12/11c


“Kitten Bowl” is the greatest feline showdown in cable television history.  The competition will consist of two preliminary playoffs and a championship match. Along with basic obstacle courses of hurdles, tunnels, hoops, jumps, weave poles, lasers, lures and toys on strings, “Kitten Bowl” will feature clever locker room strategies, player profiles and “interviews,” and camera work and audio recordings from the athletes as they play the game! 

This inaugural three-hour special event, in Association with North Shore Animal League America, will be hosted by TV personality and activist Beth Stern, and emceed by John Sterling, the legendary radio voice of the New York Yankees.

All of the kittens participating in the competition are guaranteed forever homes through Hallmark Channel’s partnership with North Shore Animal League America whose innovations in animal welfare have saved more than 1,000,000 pets – and counting!  “Kitten Bowl” guarantees the 60-70 kitten participants will join the list of pets adopted into loving homes and will significantly raise the awareness of the plight of shelter animals across the country.

I watch this.  It gets a little repetitive after 20 minutes or so but, who cares?  It's kittens!

Of course!  
  

Do they put this on this every year?  I'd never heard of it before.

It was on last year, pretty sure.  I think the Puppy Bowl is longer.  Or, maybe I'm remembering it wrong and they only had the cats on during the Puppy Bowl for a short spot?  I'm getting old and can't remember from one year to the next lol.
