Attempts

Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!

  • Doc kicked a football at Patatas, before using a piece of string to shake the branch the cat was balanced on, with the cat falling after 7 minutes. He received 4 points based on the rationale that cats like string.
  • Joe threw tennis balls and a football, knocking it down after 3 minutes 55 seconds. He received 3 points.
  • Jon threw several things at Patatas to get the cat to fall, including a football, tennis balls, a tennis racquet, a lacrosse stick, a croquet mallet, a crutch and a space hopper. He took 20 minutes 55 seconds. He received 2 points.
  • Katherine created a long pole to get Patatas down, getting Alex to catch the cat in a net. She received 5 points.
  • Richard created a long pole and threw things into the tree, but failed to get Patatas out of the tree after 45 minutes. He received 0 points.
