Four Month Old Peruvian Cat Likes To Surf Waves

Sporting animals are nothing new - horseracing, polo and other equestrian classics notwithstanding, recent years have seen YouTube's famous skateboarding dog and a sports-mad pigeon trying a little too hard to get involved in baseball.

But a surfing cat, however, is something different...

Domingo Pianezzi, of Lima, Peru, believes that his small cat Nicolasa enjoys catching tubes almost as much as catching mice.
Little Nicolasa, a four month old, tortoiseshell kitten from Lima in Peru is the latest sporting phenomena according to world news stations. She is a "surfing cat".
She started to get into water by herself and take a cooling swim’, said her owner and fellow surfer, Domingo Pianezzi, “so I took her down to the beach.” She jumped onto his surf board and seemed love being in the sea.

Nicholasa seems to hang on really tight and Domingo believes that she is enjoying it, but this picture could be interpreted in a different way. Maybe she is terrified and clinging on in fear in case she falls into the water.

This story has hit the news all around the world, after all, cats are supposed to hate water.
