Ode to Derby Kitty...

Know what the NRG practice space has?  DERBY KITTY!!!  I bet yours doesn't have a kitty!!  I've mentioned her before...yes, I'm a completely mad cat lady.  Derby Kitty is from the 'hood around the warehouse...she's got a collar, no one knows where she came from, but when a large group shows up to skate, so does the cat.  So here is my little homage to our derby-passionate feline friend who I love.  (yes, LOVE.)

Derby Kitty observes scrimmages...she's gets very irate about track cuts. 

She keeps her gams in shape with kettlebells...she told me she's gunning for Rambo's vacant roster spot.

She comes prepared with her own skate tools...but sometimes she's kind of a whiny bitch, and gets mad and takes a nap during practice.  We're helping her work on her 'tude. 

[NOTED:  Some NRG's who have longer been acquainted with said kitty, declare most vehemently that the cat should be referred to as "TRACK CAT".  While I respect your name choice, that name makes me imagine the cat as flattened and disemboweled under skates.  Yeah, I know...I'm crazy.  However, as to not offend you further, I only refer to the cat as "Derby Kitty" in the general sense, not as it's actual name.  Y'all wear me the hell out with your pedantic cat-name demands!  (I love you!)]
