Pierre used to use a catapult to throw opals miles when no-one was looking. At first it gave him an advantage. But what he failed to realise was the catapult could only throw things far because he had the strength to pull on it. Unknown to him, using the catapult increased the strength of his tiny forelimbs and Improved his throwing technique. He didn’t have the taste for cheating and was prepared to lose everything when the Power Pets Sports Club went honest, but when he quit using the catapult, he found it had trained him into being a far better thrower than he could have hoped! So he now encourages moles and other small mammals to use the catapult as a training aid, and has his own workshop at the Center of Excellence teaching them isometrics and isotonics.
