Cats who stay away from the sweater areas of a person are fine (except for emergency grabbing, in which case the sweater isn't the main concern). If you have cuddly cats who put their feet anywhere on your sweater, yeah, no. Especially if you don't trim their claws.
Yes, hakas are way cool. Also, the Maori are the only indigenous people that ended up forcing the British into a treary rather than being overwhelmed militarily. Lots of interesting stories about the people from before the Brits arrived, too. And a replica of a building at the Field! (Did you ever meet my ex, the kiwi/Brit? NZ is a cool place.)
re: rugby -- In NZ, some amateur rugby players play US-type football in the off season. And end up with more injuries than when the play rugby, too. Other than that, I don't know a lot about the game.

Yay, exercise! (Um, better you than me?)
