There’s A Cat In Coolangatta Who Skates Around Town And Ollies Over Rottweilers
Please meet your new Australia Day hero.
Coolangatta — picturesque entry point to the Gold Coast, real-life setting of local classic Muriel’s Wedding, and home to a skateboarding cat named Didga.
Wait, what?
Yeah, just watch it:
Is this an unofficial Coolangatta Council tourism video? ‘Cause it’s pretty effective. They should just call it ‘Skating Cat-agatta’ now. It also raises some important questions ahead of this weekend’s national festivities: Can a cat be named ‘Australian Of The Year’? Does the Governor-General give out awards to the ‘Australian Cat Of The Year’? I think it’s time she did.
