Home-Schooled Kitten Wins Scritch National Spelling Bee

Home-Schooled Kitten Wins Scritch National Spelling Bee

By mirandate, FluffPo Correspondent

It’s official. Another home-schooled kitten has taken the top prize at the 86th Annual Scritch National Spelling Bee. Geneva, a Russian Blue whose parents home school her in Lansing, Michigan, won the bee late in the fourth round when 8-year-old Hannah Lewis of Nebraska was eliminated on the word “shwarmerei." 

Spelling coach Roslyn Morgenstern tells The Fluffington Post, "Geneva has been training hard for this moment almost from the moment she was weaned. That being said, I do think she got a little lucky when they gave her ‘klnnnnnnnmmkoiii’ as the last word. She almost slipped up and only spelled it with only six N’s.”
