    I would like to see medals compared to population size. Expect a country of 300 million to win more than a country of 4 million, what about pet capital?

    I think the US has more pets by far, so we'd always be at the top.

    Yes, but the OP was talking about pet CAPITAL. Do we have the RICHEST pets? (Probably.)

    I bet cats would be awesome in floor exercise and balance beam. Well, unless they took time out to groom themselves and hack up a hairball.

    Or, are we talking about the overall value of the pets. Some countries probably have some super expensive horses.

    You must be new to this Olympics thing. The home country ALWAYS does WAY better than usual.
